Commune with Jeff Krasno

295. Commusings: Nostalgia Means Our Pain

This week’s missive explores relativity theory within the context of human transience. It may be a bit maudlin in parts, but I have been exploring the Japanese aesthetic concept of wabi-sabi – the delightful sadness that characterizes impermanence. Commusings is our format where we take a moment to think deeply on the topics of spirituality, philosophy, and culture.

The Commune Podcast is where we explore the ideas and practices that help us live healthy, connected, purpose-filled lives. Each week host Jeff Krasno speaks with teachers, spiritual leaders, doctors, and storytellers on topics related to personal and societal well-being — from nutrition and integrative medicine to spirituality and personal growth to environmental regeneration and civic engagement. In addition to being a podcast, Commune is also an online course platform with more than 100 full-length video courses with top teachers such as Deepak Chopra, Marianne Williamson, Dr. Mark Hyman, Adriene Mishler, and many others.<br/><br/>Learn more at <a href="https://www.onecommune.com" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">onecommune.com</a>.
