On the podcast, I talk to Andy Hobson and we talk about his journey from rock star drummer to rock star mindfulness teacher.

Andy started life as a drummer after following his dream to be a professional musician. But as he admits on the podcast he was always more concerned with the nature of the human experience constantly asking his school friends how they knew they were them.

We talk about the most common myths of mindfulness, how he transformed his life from rockstar to mindfulness teacher and what is it really like playing to tens of thousands of people.

Oh and a top tip on how to mindfully connect with a toddler having a tantrum.

Now with over 77,000 followers on Insight Timer - The largest free library of guided meditations on earth with more than 20000 titles - Andy’s vision is to create a happier, kinder, more conscious world through teaching meditation.

Since starting to teach meditation in 2010, he has helped millions of people around the world through his online guided meditations and courses.

Andy draws upon many traditions, philosophies, therapeutic approaches and his personal meditation practice to teach how we can return to our true nature, free ourselves from the voice in our head and find lasting happiness, purpose and freedom.
