Ronald Purser - McMindfulness

In his book McMindfulness: How Mindfulness Became the New Capitalist Spirituality, Ronald Purser offers an argument against contemporary mindfulness, claiming that corporations have embraced the practice in order to advance a neoliberal agenda. In this episode of Tricycle Talks, Purser strikes a more balanced tone and discusses the good and bad of the mindfulness movement, and presents his view that mindfulness has an untapped potential to bring about real social change.

Very important discourse to be having. The advertising in the middle was very ironic and in poor taste I felt. However - this is something we all need to be thinking about.
