World-renowned consciousness teacher Peter Russell is the author of How to Meditate Without Even Trying and eleven other books. A teacher of meditation for more than fifty years, he believes the critical challenge of today is freeing human thinking from the limited beliefs and attitudes that lie behind many of our problems — personal, social, and global. He has inspired thousands through his talks, teachings, retreats, and popular online courses. Here he and Dawson talk about:
