In this week's episode of Chasing Joy we journey into the dark and silence within... sensory deprivation.
It started with a card in a Berkeley bookstore.
“The secret to getting everything you want is…” it read.
That simple line opened the door to a deeper conversation—about joy, about contentment, and about the quiet practice of wanting less.
In this episode, we talk about the difference between chasing more and being present to what already is. Wayne shares what he’s been learning through mindfulness, breathwork, and the strange but revealing experience of floating in a sensory deprivation tank. We talk about the awkwardness of tuning out the noise, the difficulty of sitting with your own thoughts, and the unexpected beauty in it all.
This one’s not about hacks or productivity. It’s about slowing down long enough to actually hear yourself think—and maybe even remember what matters.
If you're feeling stretched thin, or just curious about what contentment could look like in real life… this might be a good one to sit with.
