Mindful Living Is Not a Luxury: Meditation, Compassion, and Veganism as Daily Practice with Dr. Will Tuttle
On The Mindful Journey, Sana talks with Dr. Will Tuttle—author of the international bestseller The World Peace Diet, Zen practitioner, educator, and musician. Dr. Tuttle traces his path from walking across America in contemplative inquiry to monastic training in Korea, and later teaching, composing, and advocating compassionate, vegan living. We explore how mindfulness becomes a way of being, not a task; why a consistent morning practice matters; how intuition, art, and music deepen awareness; and how our food choices ripple through health, relationships, and the planet. If you’re seeking practical, grounded steps to align consciousness, compassion, and daily habits, this conversation is for you.
About the guest:
Dr. Will Tuttle is a philosopher, composer, and author of The World Peace Diet and The World Peace Way. A former Zen monk and longtime meditation teacher, he and his wife, artist Madeleine, have presented concerts, retreats, and trainings worldwide focused on mindfulness, ahimsa, and conscious living.
Key takeaways:
Mindfulness is foundational awareness—less doing, more being present across thoughts, senses, and actions.
Real change starts with self-transformation; model the qualities you want to see in others.
A steady morning routine (silence, meditation, gentle movement, journaling, reading) sets the tone for the day.
Food ethics matter: cultivating compassion toward animals and nature supports personal and societal well-being.
Intuition can be trained; creative practices like music and art help us “see” beyond personality to essence.
Gratitude and savoring anchor attention in the present despite technological distraction.
Life’s challenges are “weights” that build spiritual strength when embraced mindfully.
Community impact is cumulative: every thought, word, and deed creates ripples that return to us.
Simplicity and service—over status—open unexpected doors on the path.
Relationships deepen when we look past form and reflect others’ inherent beauty and dignity.
