Author and meditation teacher Mark Van Buren enters the Anxiety Lab! Mark leads meditation workshops, silent retreats, and corporate wellness classes. He offers simple tools and practices that can reduce stress, help with anxiety and depression, manage pain, and transform the many difficult aspects of life.  We talked about day-to-day integration of the teachings, the important impact of meditation, the annoying-ness of being told our awakened heart is “already there,” our subconscious sense of entitlement, opening up to our shared suffering, and so much more! You can find Mark (and his great books) at http://www.authormarkvanburen.com/ and his IG is authormarkvanburen   As mentioned my free social gratitude app is landedapp.net.    You can also get in touch with me at theanxietylab@gmail.com or on IG @sagarbot.
