Mindful senior editor Amber Tucker speaks with Edward M. Adams and Ed Frauenheim, authors of Reinventing Masculinity: The Liberating Power of Compassion and Connection.

“Gentle accountability,” Mindful founding editor Barry Boyce says, “is the cornerstone of the deepest kind of friendship, where we rely on each other to let us know when we're full of ourselves.” In this episode of Real Mindful, Barry Boyce sits down with managing editor Stephanie Domet to talk about overcoming our differences, how mindful awareness can help us navigate the habits and patterns that arise in our in-groups, the refreshing value of encountering other perspectives, the benefits of mindful teasing and the beauty of encouragement.
For mindfulness teacher, author, and clinical psychologist Ruth King, holding onto hate is not an option. Instead, she returns to the knowledge that we are inter-connected, and that we belong to each other—even when it's hard. “The world needs our wise hearts right now,” she says, and mindfulness can give us the inner stability to respond, rather than react, when change feels urgent. In the first ever episode of Real Mindful, Ruth joins managing editor Stephanie Domet in conversation about finding comfort in impermanence, and the healing power of compassion.
Good news: It's okay to be a mindful vulgarian. What's important is that you're aware of the context, the words you use and how you use them. It's all about mindful communication.

Anger, passion and the other emotions that circle through you are welcome in the space of mindfulness. Barry Boyce and Stephanie Domet talk about the push and pull of emotions versus rationality. They discuss how people can have the impression we need to remain in a neutral, calm state. Barry says that's not the answer nor is it the truth of who we are as humans. He recalls moments where he's dealt with anger and what he's learned from it all. Barry leads Stephanie through a practice to sit with your emotions. Together they reflect on the role of emotions in our lives and in our mindfulness practices. Show notes: Meditation by Barry Boyce.
As we move through our day, how many things are we looking at but not truly seeing? Where are we injecting ideas of what something should be and missing the truth in front of us? Barry Boyce tells Stephanie Domet about an epic battle he had with a jigsaw puzzle that revealed how the perceptions we hold can lead us into having images of how somebody or something should be instead of seeing people and situations for what they are. Together they discuss how mindfulness can slow us down and allow us to gain awareness of our thinking patterns and the biases we hold.
Rudeness is everywhere, even in the circles of mindfulness. But what is it that we're picking up on when we experience rudeness? Barry Boyce tells Stephanie Domet how he noticed impoliteness at several conferences and mindfulness retreats. What he discovered is the contrast between being aware of your thoughts and being aware of the people around you. Together they navigate how to let go of control, listen with your body, and step outside of focusing on yourself to make room for others and let go of rudeness in the process.
Founding editor Barry Boyce speaks with Stephanie Domet about how adding curiosity to moments of boredom improves the quality of your perception.
