Welcome to Commune. This is Jeff Krasno. Our mission is to spread the ideas and practices of the world's greatest teachers.

We do that through online courses, a weekly newsletter, and this podcast. On the show, I excavate perennial spiritual questions,

Reality is infinite. We experience a narrow bandwidth of it unless we transcend our senses through meditation.

We delve into practices and modalities that can heal trauma and help us thrive.

We build a sturdy bridge between personal wellness and societal well-being.

It's only when you get people who are pursuing their dreams, living their truth, and feeling

good, that we can actually move the needle of society forward.

the existential threats facing the region due to deforestation, mining,
