41: Saw Myint in the hot seat

I’m Saw Myint, founder of the Australian charity Wake Up Ltd. I’ve been supporting people in need since I was 20, and for the past decade, my Buddhist practice has guided my own mental health journey.I now share insights from self mental healthcare and stress relief practices - the Buddha Way, backed by science. This approach is evidence-based and accessible to anyone open-minded and willing to face life’s realities. It helps people navigate stress, depression, addiction, workaholism, relationship challenges and other life pressures.These techniques also inform my work as a mortgage broker. By combining financial expertise with mindfulness and a client-centered approach, I guide clients to make confident, clear-headed decisions, reducing stress around home loans and helping them feel secure in their financial choices.The essence of the teaching is simple: our feelings…happiness or unhappiness…are fleeting, often shaped by memory, reflection or imagination rather than the present moment. By recognizing this, we can reduce suffering and cultivate calm, clarity, and resilience all while living our everyday lives.I would be delighted to share these insights as a guest and answer questions about practical, science-informed, Buddhist-inspired approaches to mental wellbeing and mindful decision-making.https://www.facebook.com/likesawkmyint
