In October 2015 there was a world-wide mindfulness on-line summit hosted by Mrs Mindfulness, an Australian Yoga and Mindfulness teacher named Melli. I have most of these interviews on file for my personal use but they are not public domain so I cannot post them here. Recently Melli made the final interview by Jon Kabat Zinn available to all so I thought I'd add it here as it represents the latest thinking of the man who founded MBSR and more or less started the Mindfulness movement. Here's Melli's introduction and link to the video interview. A must-watch in our opinion:
The Deeper Dimensions of Mindfulness: An Interview With Jon Kabat-Zinn
In October 2015, I hosted the world’s largest mindfulness conference, the mindfulness summit, with over 250,000 people in attendance online.
This interview below with Jon Kabat-Zinn aired on the last day of the summit and was the peak of the whole summit for me. In this interview, Jon chats with me about the deeper dimensions of a mindfulness practice and the ‘self-realisation’ that unfolds as a result of the practice. He also clears up some common misconceptions about mindfulness and invites us to know for ourselves the sacredness that is inherent in the present moment. He also answers the question, ‘Is there a right way to practice?’ or ‘a right tradition?’ and gives wise advice on dealing with one of the biggest challenges in awakening.
