Wendy Shinyo Haylett, a Buddhist teacher, lay minister, mindfulness coach, and behavioral analyst shares the "tips and tricks" found in Buddhist teachings to make your professional and personal life better ... everyday!
In this
episode, Italk
with Emma
Varvaloucas, an
editor and writer with a decade+ focusing on discovering and
publicizing underreported good news in the nonprofit media
space.
Emma is the executive director of The
Progress Network, where she writes the popular What Could Go Right? weekly newsletter
and is co-host of the What Could
Go Right? podcast. She was formerly the executive
editor of Tricycle: The
Buddhist Review, and the editor of two books from Wisdom
Publications.
In a wide-ranging conversation, we
discuss how we can train our minds to not overreact to the negative
and scary things that are happening in the world so that
we might respond with equanimity rather than join the chorus of
divisiveness and despair.
Among many other things, we talk about
the news, social media, polarization … and a non-grasping way of
thinking about progress as not a utopia just around the
corner but more a noticing of the gradual arc of improvement in
people's lives by focusing less on the click-bait negative
headlines and more on what is going right.
