Finding Mastery with Dr. Michael Gervais

Bring Your Attention In Line with Your Intention | Dr. Pedram Shojai


Listen Later

This week’s conversation is with Dr. Pedram Shojai, a Doctor of Oriental Medicine, Master Herbalist and acupuncturist.

Pedram is the New York Times bestselling author of The Urban Monk and The Art of Stopping Time.

He is an acclaimed Qigong Master and Taoist Abbot with a practical approach to modern living, using Eastern thinking and practices to help himself and others overcome the Westernized challenges of everyday life.

His upcoming book, FOCUS: Bringing Time, Energy and Money into Flow, is about bringing your attention in line with your intention to get the life you want, and will release November 10, 2020. 

In this conversation, we talk about strategies for improving focus and getting the most out of each day.

For Pedram, it comes down to prioritizing what's most important and implementing a practice of life gardening.

You get a certain amount of plants. You say you want them watered. You say they're important to you. How is the allocation of your water?
