From the archive: this Head First conversation with Shinzen Young was recorded in 2018.
Shinzen breaks meditation into three trainable skills: concentration, sensory clarity, and equanimity. We get into pain and suffering, the structure of attention, long-term practice, consciousness, and the places where contemplative experience reaches beyond the available neuroscience.
One dated detail matters. Near the end, Shinzen mentions a first human study planned for a few weeks after this recording. That is a 2018 project update, preserved here as part of the original conversation.
Shinzen Young developed the Unified Mindfulness system and wrote The Science of Enlightenment: How Meditation Works.
Host: Dr. Andrew Hill, cognitive neuroscientist and founder of Peak Brain Institute.
