In this episode, we talk to Cindy Teevens, author of Alchemy, How to Feel Good No Matter What, as well as The Happiness Lie—which challenges the belief that external factors control our happiness—about her “explosion of love” experience of intense bliss and joy for no external reason, eroding the idea of separation, and leading to a profound awakening.

• Includes a guided meditation that gives a taste of her “Two Minute Technique to Inner Peace,” utilizing the power of attention to shift focus from thoughts to sensory awareness.
