Suresh Patel is a personal development coach, who coaches people on finding meaning in their life and work. He is also the father of a good friend of mine, Ishit.
In the episode, we talk about meditation, how to find meaning in your personal life and working life, how to gain more focus and how to prioritize in order to reach more meaning. Suresh is an experienced meditator, so we also talk about the effects of meditation on your mental wellbeing and your personal worldview.
When he meditates, he practices the Vipassana technique. For the listeners who don’t know about this technique, I’ll try to briefly explain what it entails. In its essence, the technique is about accepting reality as it truly is - as it truly presents itself in the present moment to you. You do this through focusing on your sensory perceptions, across your body. If you want to know more about it, please have a look at the show notes, at evolvedprimates.com/episodes .
The audio quality from Suresh can sometimes be a bit less good because it’s recorded on his phone, but the quality of the content is amazing. I would say it’s worth it, but you can decide.
