Plus: how to handle discomfort, be more present, and remember to be aware throughout your day.
Most of us spend our days somewhere between the past and the future — technically conscious, but not really there. Meditation teacher Susa Talan takes live questions from practitioners on what it actually means to show up for your own life, and how to do it even when you can't sit still, even when you're crying, even when anxiety has narrowed your whole world down to a single racing heartbeat.
Susa Talan is a meditation teacher trained in the insight tradition. She works one-on-one with students around their meditation practice, and she was the Teacher of the Month for April 2026 for DanHarris.com. You can get more guided meditations from Susa in the 10% with Dan Harris app.

In this live Q&A, Susa Talan shares:
 
Why awareness isn't hard — what's actually hard is remembering to be aware

The "what else is here?" technique for working with anxiety and heart palpitations

Why you don't need to understand why you cry in meditation — and what to do instead

How to cultivate awareness all day long, not just on the cushion

Why meditation has nothing to do with sitting still — and everything to do with the whole car ride
