Conscious Living

Living Zen

Living Zen is about more than just putting a Buddha fountain on your bookshelf. The reality of walking the path of mindfulness on a daily basis is far from easy. On this episode, we're bringing you the best of Zen both at home and out in the world. We visit a Zen Buddhist retreat center in Marin County, California with a robust organic farm, and learn how the simple practice of reaping and sowing can help harvest the fruits of peace and detachment. Then, just East of Big Sur, we take a dip in the healing high mountain hot springs of the nation's oldest Zen Buddhist monastery, Tassajara. Back at home, we practice the 5,000-year-old art of feng shui. To keep the good vibes flowing, we visit with an expert who clears old energy, enhances chi and transforms living spaces through the simple art of placement.
