That Feeling That Something's Missing, and How To Find It | Vinny Ferraro

Hello, everybody. Welcome to the Ten Percent Happier Podcast. I'm your host, Dan Harris. One of, if not the most potent sources of human suffering is compulsive wanting. You know what I'm talking about. No moment is ever good enough. Nothing's ever complete. We're always looking for the next thing, the next bite, the next scroll, the next achievement, you name it. But what if you could achieve some sort of contentment of enoughness? That's what we're gonna talk about today with one of my favorite Buddhist teachers, Vinny Ferraro. Vinny, uh many of you know him, he's a fan favorite. He trained uh in the Spirit Rock IMS tradition, and he leads uh retreats across the country and the world. He teaches in schools, juvenile halls, and prisons. He's also got an online course that he co-teaches and that will be launching in a few weeks. It's called A Year to Live. You can sign up for it at the link in the show notes. And he is teacher of the month for this month, the month of November.

on the Ten Percent with Dan Harris meditation app, where he's created a series of guided meditations on the subject of enoughness. Okay, enough out of me. Danny Ferraro, welcome back to the show. Thanks for having me, Dan. Good to see you. It's a huge pleasure. Thanks for making time to do this. Um, I know uh that all of the folks on my in my world will be happy to hear your voice and see your face again.
