This episode, I chat with one of Australia’s most popular thought leaders in mindfulness and meditation, Luke McLeod.   For over 16 years, Luke has practiced and trained in a variety of different meditation techniques including, vedic, zen, vipassana, and general mindfulness.   Luke is the founder of Soul Alive, Australia’s first dedicated virtual meditation studio.
