| Stop meditating, instructs Fabrice Midal. In fact, don't just stop it, f--k meditating.
While you're at it, f--k trying to be calm, f--k obeying, f--k being wise.
It's unusual advice coming from a professor of philosophy at the University of Paris who has practiced meditation for 25 years and taught it for 15 years.
But, Midal insists that all the directives in our lives have become about 'bettering' ourselves; they are performance or achievement-based and instead of liberating us, end up becoming constraints that simply serve to torment us.
