Ep. 7 - The 4 Components of Being Human with Philip Davidson

In this episode of Shut Up and Sit, Yedda welcomes Philip Davidson, whom she met on her search for community and connection, to shut up and sit down with her to explore the four components of being human. Philip shares his relationship to mindfulness and his journey to becoming a mindfulness teacher, along with his work at The Innerwork Center.

Philip sheds light on his wisdom-filled, candid thoughts on what living a human life is all about, as well as how practicing and teaching mindfulness with his partner, Kay, has allowed their relationship to grow and deepen. 

“Part of what mindfulness is about is the invitation to experiment.” - Philip Davidson

There are four conditions of being human that are beyond our control and what happens next is up to us! Yedda invites you to shut up and sit down while Philip invites you to write these four conditions down and reflect upon how each of them shows up in your life. Allow this to bring you to a place of self-love, compassion, forgiveness, and acceptance of who you are and who others are. 

“Unless we accept the reality of what’s already happened, this moment that’s here right now… we’re caught up in denial that it’s happening, we resist it, or my favorite, wishing things to be other than they are.” - Philip Davidson
