About this listen

Yin Yang focuses on the yin-yang symbol’s prominence in cultures worldwide and its immersive history. Religious leaders, meditation guides, award-winning authors, psychedelic therapists, and business executives provide in-depth conversations about the vital importance of healthy duality within our lives and how to bring mindfulness, spirituality, and harmony into effective leadership.

Rasmussen is known for making complex topics digestible for his listeners. Here, he draws on the most proven ideas from psychology and religion to piece together a guide to understanding the beauty of the yin-yang symbol and how it relates to us all.

Today, we all need to develop feelings of self-love. We sometimes lose our identity in a world filled with stress, mental illness, and fear. A new way forward means embracing all of who we are: the dark and the light, the feminine and the masculine, and the rest and action within our authentic personas. It means accepting the yin-yang inside of us and expressing it to the multi-layered, double-sided world outside us.

Rasmussen’s empowering personal journey of reaching a lifestyle of mindfulness and equanimity is reflected in the hypothesis of his honest writing: To be human is not just to be aware of the duality within and around oneself but to embrace it, accept it, and use it to reach the ultimate version of yourself.

Critic Reviews

“Jack Rasmussen’s Yin Yang beautifully explores what it means to be balanced humans. He compellingly narrates and examines his—and our—life to uncover how duality can shape greatness within us. At age twenty-two, Rasmussen travels to Taiwan to learn about tai chi. He learns many valuable lessons, which he shares with us in accessible and powerful ways that can help us all achieve balance in our lives and our work.”—Sean Prentiss, Author of Finding Abbey: The Search for Edward Abbey and His Hidden Desert Grave

"When faced with difficulties, we should look at the problem from multiple dimensions and not from one angle alone. In this book, Jack Rasmussen shares his personal experience and explores ways to look at life positively." **—His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama**
