About the author
Jason Gregory is the author of several books on Taoist and Eastern contemplative practice published by Inner Traditions International. Fasting the Mind: Spiritual Exercises for Psychic Detox (2017) combines cognitive psychology with Zen, Taoist, and Vedic techniques for quieting mental noise; Emotional Intuition for Peak Performance (2020) sets out habits intended to support focus and spontaneity; The Tradition of Natural Taoism (2025) returns to source texts such as the Tao Te Ching and the Chuang-tzu; and Enlightenment Now draws on Buddhist, Hindu, and Taoist thought to discuss conditioning and meditation. Across these titles Gregory works consistently at the intersection of classical Asian philosophy and contemporary self-development, writing for readers interested in meditation and mind-training frameworks explained through named historical traditions rather than invented systems.
