This is the 10% Happier Podcast. I'm Dan Harris. Happy Friday, everybody. Today we're talking about something We all want, but often struggle to actually achieve equanimity.
You're going to hear from one of my favorite meditation teachers, Kamala Masters, who is an awesome person. You're going to hear from her about how she cultivated some measure of balance and calm in the middle of an extremely chaotic period of her life when she was raising young children by herself. To be clear though, this is not just about achieving equanimity with children. It's about keeping your shit together no matter what's going on. As you may have noticed, there's a lot going on in the world, so this is a discussion of evergreen importance.
As you also may have noticed, we've been doing Friday episodes of late where we share golden nuggets from our vast archive as selected by members of the team here at 10% Happier. Today's clip, which again is from Kamala Masters, the clip was chosen by DJ Kashmir, who's our executive producer, who himself has young children. In a moment after this quick break, you're going to hear DJ describe why he picked the clip, and then we will hear the clip from Kamala. But first, and very quickly, I want to remind you to come check out what we're doing over at danharris.com.
