Interviews

Shinzen talks about the 5 Ways
Interview with Stephanie Nash - November 9, 2007

In this interview I describe the 5 Ways system to Stephanie Nash. Stephanie is a great interviewer and managed to draw a lot out by asking pointed questions, making sure I "connect all the dots" so that people with little or no background can get a sense of how the system works and why it's so effective. For more about Stephanie, please visit her website http://mindfulnessarts.org/blog/ . Enjoy!
