    I really enjoy Dan’s skeptical questioning and sense of humor that he brings to this topic. The show has a wide range of interesting guests. It has become one of my go tos. If we were all 10% happier the world would be a better place for it.

  • Differing views

    In a time of polarization and enmity this podcast, and Dan Harris specifically, seek common ground in order to provide a place that we can learn to be accepting of others and heal ourselves. He is not teaching us to be walked on… rather we must learn how to lovingly challenge and ourselves in order to do so with others. If there was a “Love” button I would click it!

  • I may be 10% happier!

    I am a newish listener and I can’t say enough about how much I appreciate this podcast and the thoughtful guests Mr. Harris brings to light.

    His conversational style is lovely - he truly listens to understand and shares his own personal practices and growth and setbacks - all part of practicing.

    I find that as I listen to more episodes my mind is naturally absorbing the concepts and ideas and I am happier and more peaceful.

    Cheers to Mr. Harris for his mission. You can truly see it shine thr... more
