Sit with discomfort: John Robins

John Robins leads an insightful meditation to help us sit with uncomfortable emotions and experiences. John is a comedian, author and podcaster who draws on his unique perspective to show us how to acknowledge discomfort rather than immediately trying to escape it.

The music that soundtracks John's guided meditation was composed by Vivek Haria and recorded by the BBC Singers exclusively for this episode.
