Mastering Inner Peace: Delson Armstrong on Conquering Cravings and Awakening the Mind

So a wandering mind is a mind with craving. Yeah, yeah, it is because everybody comes from a sense of self like: how could you take away the sense of an experiencer? But that experience becomes the anchor to the present, becomes an anchor to being here and now.
What if you could conquer the constant cravings that cloud your mind? In this episode of The FitMind Podcast, host Liam McClintock sits down with Delson Armstrong, a meditation teacher and author of 'A Mind Without Craving'. Delson's journey is nothing short of extraordinary. He spent years meditating in the Himalayas, mastering various yoga systems, and exploring the ten levels of samadhi (deep meditative states).
His experiences have led him to a unique understanding of how to achieve supreme happiness and inner peace. Delson dives into the concept of a 'craving mind'—a mind that constantly grasps for more, leading to mental suffering. He shares his insights on cessation, a state where sensory input is minimized, allowing the mind to rest completely. This isn't just theory; Delson's brain has been studied by leading neuroscience research labs, offering scientific backing to his ancient practices.
Listeners will find practical advice on deconditioning a wandering mind and techniques to achieve a state of 'no self', where personal suffering ceases. Delson also touches on the importance of family and relationships in finding inner peace, making this episode relatable and actionable for anyone struggling with mental fitness. Whether you're new to meditation or a seasoned practitioner, Delson's insights offer a fresh perspective on conquering cravings and achieving true mental freedom.
Tune in to discover how ancient wisdom and modern science converge to unlock the secrets of a peaceful mind.
