  • David Pyatt | Calming Busy-ness and Reactivity

    Summary:

    After years of procrastination, learning to meditate was like flicking a switch for David Pyatt and his family. From Day 1, David felt the benefits of being able to calm and declutter his mind and let go of reactivity through being grounded, aware and present.

    In this episode, David reflects on how meditation went from being an item on his to-do list to being a practical tool he relies upon and uses daily, improving his mental and physical health, his ability to stay calm, clear and focused especially when life gets challenging and to see the bigger-picture and prioritise what’s important.
