In this episode of "Spirit Seekers", we take a look at the concept of emptying your cup, from ZEN Buddhism: What it means, and more importantly, how to do it.

Especially in this day and age of fake news, it is a vital skill to master. I will describe examples from Social Psychology that are related to this subject. After all, self-knowledge is the first step towards self-mastery. I also discuss mindfulness and depolarization as tools towards emptying your proverbial cup.

In La'kech,
