About this listen
The essential guide to training your brain for mindfulness - modern, science-based, and with no Buddhism required.
Publisher’s note: Brain Training with the Buddha was previously published in hardcover as The Foundations of Mindfulness.
Lifelong meditation teacher Eric Harrison intimately understands the benefits of mindfulness, from improved focus and better judgment to relaxation and inner peace. He’s helped tens of thousands of students to achieve these goals by rooting his practice in the Buddha’s original text on how to meditate and live mindfully: The Satipatthana Sutta.
Brain Training with the Buddha offers a secular perspective on this ancient wisdom that requires no familiarity with Buddhism itself - only openness to the Buddha’s original teachings. Harrison’s translation of this sutta (the first in modern English) comes with guidance for anyone looking to train their mind by applying its 13 steps to mindful living today.

A great place to begin meditation
I really like the way he spent a lifetime figuring out what the Buddha said about mindfulness while ditching the religious aspects. So this means I can take the pedals and handlebars he provides and bolt on my own spiritual frame (yogic psychology) and wheels (quantum physics, siddha yoga and conversations with god). I note with interest that last week I had an epiphany that after the Buddha sat under his tree for 6 years, presumably having dug a sloping trench to sit over, he exhaled and became enlightened. Eric makes a big thing about sighing practice.

A behaviourist’s guide to meditation
I don’t subscribe to the allopathic and behaviourist principles upon which this book is based, thus it did not appeal to me.
