About this episode

Noah Levine explores the nature of the body and our relationship with it through mindfulness practices.

We walk around thinking this body is fixed and solid, but on closer inspection it’s mostly water, heat, air, sensation, and constantly changing conditions. The practice of mindfulness of the body breaks experience down piece by piece, asking us to look directly instead of relying on assumptions. What happens when we really investigate the body we call “self”? How’s your relationship with your body? Do you relate to this body as a vehicle? Do you believe this body is who you are? Are you kind to your body?
