If you’ve been reading my posts here so far, you might have begun to suspect this is a Dan Harris fan site.  I’m going to be posting about other people’s material, I swear, but I began with Harris because his take on mindfulness is tuned very specifically for skeptical and secular beginners, which is what I am.  My plan’s to go through his materials first before graduating to others.

And with that said, here are two new and very short videos Harris made with Happify, with my takeaways.  If you’ve watched his other videos—posted here and here—you’ll be familiar with much of this.  These shorts are mostly just repackaged snippets of his lecture, but there's enough new in them to make them worthwhile.
