Welcome to the Commune podcast. My name is Jeff Krasno.

Okay, so first off, let me express my gratitude to the 100,000 or so subscribers to this podcast.

I deeply appreciate all the emails, the guest suggestions, and largely constructive feedback.

Most of all, I really love the flexibility of the podcast as it serves as a bit of a sandbox for creative explorations.

Many podcasts are dedicated to excavating a specific topic.

However, I simply have too many diverse interests, and there are just too many inspirational

people with myriad expertise out there to interview.

So for these reasons, I veered away from a single topic podcast.

I am apt to go deep on the microbiome for a couple of weeks and then go on a regenerative

farming jag and then on a spiritual inquiry.

So thank you for your willingness to go on this parapetetic journey with me.

In that spirit, I'm excited to introduce a new practice series to the podcast.

Every Saturday, we will publish a specific well-being praxis.

Now, we'll begin with meditation, but may venture into other modalities, such as breathwork,

yoga, tapping, and stoic contemplations, among others.

Now, while I will set the stage by providing some of the initial theory and lessons,

we will soon draw from the vast array of preeminent commune teachers to guide us through various practices and modalities.

Of course, you can always access the full treasure trove of more than a thousand lessons that we recorded over the years with a

commune membership at one commune.com.

This first episode contains more preamble as I want to properly set the stage for meditation.

Future episodes will cut to the chase and jump right.

Hey it's Jeff and I'm aiming to take better care of my skin, which we should all be doing.
