Brain Won't Stop? Here's How to Calm Down | Dan HarrisOn short-circuiting anxiety, breaking thought loops, and learning how to talk to yourself. In this live Q&A, Dan covers: • Why action is the best antidote to AI anxiety — and what's actually in your control • • How to use your meditation practice inside an MRI (and when it's okay to just get sedated) • • Joseph Goldstein's "dead end" technique for breaking out of repetitive thought loops • • Why certainty is not an indicator of truth — and how open-mindedness works in a polarized world • • The Buddhist take on alcohol, and Dan's surprisingly candid answer about his own relationship with substances • • How to stop feeding the need for external approval — without toxic positivity • • Why mindfulness in Pali literally means "remembering" — and why you'll always need to hear this stuff again • Get the 10% with Dan Harris app here Sign up for Dan's free newsletter here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Subscribe to our YouTube Channel Join Dan, Sebene Selassie and Jeff Warren for Meditation Party, a 3-day immersive retreat at the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, NY, October 16–18, 2026.

The Voice in Your Head Doesn't Have to Ruin Everything | Rachel Martin and Dan HarrisPractical advice for handling anxiety, envy, and that feeling that you're a bad person. What happens when a deck of cards controls the conversation? On Wild Card, hosted by Rachel Martin, that's the whole idea — and when Dan sat down as a guest, the cards led somewhere genuinely interesting. In this episode: why Dan keeps going on silent meditation retreats even though loneliness is the hardest part; what finally made him delete Instagram; the "good-ish" concept that unlocked a new relationship with self-criticism; and a deep dive into the Buddhist take on the soul — which turns out to be a lot more useful than it sounds.
