The Mindfulness and Meditation Summit: Volume 2

Inspiring Talks with Worldwide Leaders in the Field of Mindfulness and Meditation

By: Alanis Morissette, Daniel Goleman PhD, Michael Gervais PhD, Shinzen Young, Vidyamala Burch

Five acclaimed teachers and visionaries show us how mindfulness practice can boost our performance and creativity.

What, exactly, is mindfulness? It's a "baseline" of awareness and non-resistance that you can build on the cellular level.

Why practice it? Through mindfulness meditation, you rewire your neural pathways to calm yourself in any situation, better manage your emotions, amplify your attention and presence, gain insight into "unsolvable" problems, make wiser decisions, and improve all of your relationships.

What's more, all of these shifts create a ripple effect that benefits your family, friends, workplace, and community.

Shinzen Young—"How Science Is Relevant to Your Meditation Practice"
Bonus meditation: “Untangle and Be Free”
