Finding Unconditional Freedom, with Jeremy Lipkowitz and Sean Fargo

Life has its ups and downs. It’s just not possible to arrange our world so that we only ever experience the highs. The promise of mindfulness meditation is that it can allow us to access contentment anytime, even amidst significant career and life changes, loss, overwhelming emotions, and the many forms of suffering that we, as humans, share.In this episode, Sean Fargo interviews mindfulness meditation teacher Jeremy Lipkowitz on his experience shifting away from a fixed identity based on unachievable standards. Mindfulness has helped Jeremy connect to a sense of freedom that is not dependent on conditions being just right.  This podcast is brought to you by the Mindfulness Exercises Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Training Program.
