Summary

How many of us truly understand what it means to be mindful? Manoj Dias was raised under Buddhist mindfulness traditions. Today, he’s also deeply embedded in the modern world. For some time, he was chasing a different life working in marketing and finance, but that experience – and the toll it took on his health – only strengthened his resolve as he found his way back to his roots. Having learned so much about the art of being present, he co-founded Open, a modern mindfulness studio merging technology, culture, and cinematography, with proven practices to grow community and nurture presence. He dives deep into the mindfulness of embracing pain, what it means to be mindful in your relationships, and how it feels to be truly embodied.  We also talk about: The brokenheartedness of disembodiment Being mindful in your friendships Creating a relationship with pain Changing your narrative around love Leaving your old life behind Making the decision to cut people out of your life Transformative Buddhist philosophies Cultivating a healthy relationship with technology Why Manoj started Open Sponsors: Arrae | Visit arrae.com and use code ALMOST30 for 10% off your purchase Milk + Honey | Use code ALMOST30 for 20% off your order and your first spa service at milkandhoneyspa.com Truebill | Download the app at truebill.com/almost30 BetterHelp | Get 10% off the first month of therapy at betterhelp.com/almost30 Resources: (Use keywords, titles, proper nouns, etc., to describe each third-party resource) Learn more at manojdias.com.au Follow Manoj on Instagram: @manojdias_ Follow Open on Instagram: @op_e___n You can get a free month of Open at open-together.com/almost30 Join our community: almost30.com/membership facebook.com/Almost30podcast/groups Podcast disclaimer can be found by visiting: almost30.com/disclaimer.  Find more to love at almost30.com!
