It's the 10% happier podcast. I'm Dan Harris. Happy Friday everybody time for a bonus meditation. Our teacher du jour is Emily Horn and in this

compass. A little bit about Emily before we jump in here she She's on the core team over at Buddhist

Geeks which integrates technology culture and meditation. She is authorized to

teach meditation by the Spirit Rock Meditation Center Insight Meditation Society Society, and Insight L.A. and she has been called a power

Here we go now with Emily Horn.

Hi, this is Emily.

Without a good compass, it is hard to have a sense of direction.

Our inner world is much the same.

If we don't look inside ourselves... Our inner world is much the same.

If we don't look inside ourselves, it will be hard to know what we want and need.

This meditation will support you in connecting to your motivation and fine-tuning your aim in life.

You'll do this by asking a question and then noticing what comes up.

Let's begin by settling into this moment a little bit more by noticing your body in the environment you have with the ground

and sense the air on your skin. As you ask yourself the questions I'm about to lead you through, simply notice what arises and allow it to pass? Like clouds passing in the sky?

The first question is a simple one.

What is happening now? Notice any thoughts that come up.

Allow your attention to gently rest with the words as you ask again.

What is happening now? You're not going to. Now I invite you to explore what your question is.
