Episode 6: Sensei Alex Kakuyo

Today our guest is Alex Kakuyo, a Buddhist practitioner and teacher based out of Cleveland, Ohio.  In today’s episode we speak with Alex about his path to finding Buddhist, his current practice and how it shapes his daily life, living the experience of being Buddhist and Black in today’s culture, and his various writings, including his blog Same Old Zen and his most recent book Perfectly Ordinary: Buddhist Teachings for Everyday Life.  We enjoyed this conversation so much and Alex’s sweet, empathic, disciplined, and light-hearted approach to life is a deep breath of fresh air at this moment.
