Why I Started Sitting is a story-first meditation podcast about the people who take the path of practice seriously. And the lives that led them there.
Most of us can sit still for ten minutes. But some people go far beyond that. Weeks on silent retreat, months alone, a lifetime on the cushion. Why is that? Where does their motivation come from? This show goes looking for the answers.
Each week, host and ten-year meditator James Deeney sits down with serious practitioners - Buddhist teachers, long-term meditators and leading voices in mindfulness - to trace the real human story behind the practice. What made them sit in the first place? Why did they keep going when it got hard? And what started to change in their lives over the years?
This isn't a beginner's how-to or an abstract dharma lecture. It's closer to a memoir grounded in honest real life experience. A place to explore the stories behind the stillness.
