Recording from a thunderstorm in Chicago, IL, Sahnya works on her own mindfulness practice with the distractions of wind, rain, ambulance sirens, and thunder, and shares with you a different perspective on meditation and mindfulness. It's not a mystery. We are wired to meditate if we tap into it. Sahnya says meditation is quite simple and not a "one size fits all." She guides you through a simple intentional breath exercise and assures you that we CAN make a choice to control our attention wherever we want to put it.
