Awareness Explorers episode 213: Eric Zimmer Guest Explorer

In this episode we talk to Eric Zimmer, host of the podcast, "The One You Feed," about his new book, How a Little Becomes a Lot: The Art of Small Changes for a More Meaningful Life, his approach to personal transformation combining both inner spiritual practices and outer behavioral changes, and how to balance both acceptance and change. We also discussed the importance of community and social connections in spiritual development.

• Includes a guided meditation from Eric moving us through three different modes of experience—body sensations, sounds, and breathing—and then noticing them at the same time, and letting the three merge into one field of awareness.
