This month on the Rubin’s Mindfulness Meditation podcast, we’re exploring lasting happiness: not as a passing feeling or a perfect state of mind, but as something we can cultivate through awareness, compassion, and practice.

In Buddhist thought, happiness can come from learning to meet our experiences with greater clarity and care, rather than constantly reaching for what feels pleasant or pushing away what feels difficult.

The Mindfulness Meditation podcast is a weekly series inspired by artwork from our collection. Each episode is guided by a meditation teacher and includes a short talk and a 20-minute meditation, welcoming both new and experienced practitioners.

🎧 A new episode is out now. New episodes every Friday. Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

💭 If you’ve listened to the podcast, we’d love your feedback. Complete our listener survey and receive a sound meditation led by world-renowned sound therapist saraauster – link in bio.
