Justin Michael Williams is a meditation teacher and personal coach who is also a Billboard top 20 recording artist. With Sounds True, he has published Stay Woke: A Meditation Guide for the Rest of Us. In this special video episode of Insights at the Edge, Tami Simon speaks with Justin about his upcoming “Stay Woke, Give Back” tour,\u00a0in which he will explain his unique approach to meditation and give copies of Stay Woke to youth in various cities across the US. Justin explains his “freedom meditation” technique and the experiences that led him to practicing mindfulness. Tami and Justin also discuss the blind spots of traditional meditation, the need for spiritual practices to acknowledge real-life struggles, and the dangers of spiritual bypassing. Finally, they talk about why it’s essential we begin teaching all children mindfulness skills from an early age and how we as a society can make that happen.\u00a0(66 minutes)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":6808,"template":"","meta":{"_expiration-date-status":"","_expiration-date":0,"_expiration-date-type":"","_expiration-date-categories":[],"_expiration-date-options":[]},"categories":[384,382],"tags":[170],"contributor":[399],"class_list":["post-4903","podcast","type-podcast","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-meditation","category-mindfulness","tag-insights-at-the-edge","contributor-justin-michael-williams"],"yoast_head":"\nJustin Michael Williams Stay Woke | Insights at the Edge<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Listen to this Insights at the Edge podcast exploring justin michael williams stay woke.
