We are very good at giving thanks and surprisingly bad at feeling grateful, and that gap is worth sitting with, because we tend to assume that the words and the feeling are the same thing at two different volumes, when they turn out to be different k... more
"Alone" is a word we use every day that has changed its meaning under us, and I would like to spend some time with it, because the change explains a great deal about why so many of us feel the way we feel.

Today I want to talk about timing. About the sense, which some people seem to have and most of us feel we lack, of when to act and when to wait, when to speak and when to hold back, when a thing is ready and when it needs more time.

Being understood is one of the ways we feel close to another person. There is a particular ease in knowing someone can see the intention behind an awkward sentence, or recognise tiredness in a silence that might otherwise look cold.

I’m very upset that this is AI. I wanted to learn more about Taoism to improve my mental health. I feel misled and betrayed.
The voice is Ai generated - no natural flow or any normal breathing patterns. But what’s even more annoying is that all of the content is written by Ai as well!! If you listen, you’ll hear the biggest tell: it says “quietly” over and over and over. Ai overuses the word quietly in its writing.
While I would love to listen and let this pod be an anchor of wisdom, how can I trust anything it’s saying when it’s not even being remotely curated, editing or monitored?
Disappointing.
My son introduced me to this podcast and i find myself coming back to it again and again. It’s a needed voice that resonates calm clear understanding about our nature so that we may better know ourselves.
I’m so thankful that I stumbled upon this podcast. Chen Li’s voice is soothing and I feel like he breaks things down into real world suggestions for how we can have less stress in our lives. I also like that a number of the episodes are short- it is like having a little pep talk from a wise coach!
This is the podcast I look forward to and the one that adds the most to my life. I love the voice, the music and the message.

A meditative, Taoism-inspired show offering short, accessible reflections on present-moment awareness, digital minimalism, and inner calm. Episodes blend guided contemplation with practical practices—like slowing down, noticing the body, and prioritizing meaningful presence over constant connectivity. The format often features brief, intimate monologues that are easy to digest and suitable for daily listening, making it a reliable companion for people seeking stress reduction and a gentler approach to modern life. A notable element is the consistent emphasis on everyday mindfulness rather than academic theory, plus occasional sponsorship segments woven into the flow.
