This is the 10% Happier Podcast. I'm Dan Harris. Happy Sunday, everybody. Hope you're having a good weekend. We're bringing you a guided meditation today from Kyra Jewel Lingos, an amazing meditation teacher.

Some context here. We're now creating guided meditations to go along with all of our Monday-Wednesday episodes. The idea is that we want to help you remember all the great stuff that you learn and these amazing conversations that we post. And meditation is a great way to sort of pound the wisdom into your neurons. Uh, these meditations are only available for paying subscribers over on danharris.com, but today we're giving you one for free.

It's the classic drug dealer strategy. You know, give a dose for free until we get you hooked, but we're, I think, a lot more helpful than your average drug dealer. Before we dive in, just a uh a quick reminder that I'll be doing a live meditation retreat up at the Omega Institute north of New York City at the end of October. It runs from October 24th to 26th.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is $1.

We already have this episode, so unlocking it is cheap and permanent: the full transcript (16 minutes, 1,517 words), segment and word-level timestamps, and .txt, .srt, .vtt and word-level JSON downloads, as many times as you like, forever.
