Jeff Warren is a writer and a meditation teacher. He is the coauthor, along with Dan Harris and Carlye Adler, of Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics, and author of The Head Trip, a travel guide to sleeping, dreaming and waking consciousness.
He is also co-host of the Mind Bod Adventure Pod. His guided meditations reach millions of people through the Ten Percent Happier and Calm apps, as well as through his free Home Base Substack meditation library.
Jeff’s specialties as a meditation guide—i.e., those things he has the most personal experience with—are obsessive over-thinking, dysregulated mood swings, emphatic overwhelm, and attentional hijacking. For all these reasons, his favorite meditative principle is equanimity. He can talk forever about equanimity, and frequently does, thus strategically introducing the challenge of sleepiness in all who accidentally listen to him.
Jeff’s mission is to empower people to care for their mental health, through the realistic, intelligent and sometimes irreverent exploration of meditation and personal growth practices. As someone with both ADHD and bipolar, he is big on destigmatizing mental health issues, and champions a neurodiverse outlook on life and practice.
