Mindful Meditation with Suba Nadarajah

"Meditation is simply allowing us time to pause and breathe, a place in our mind where there is no judgment and no reservations. A place only to allow us to be peaceful, happy, healthier and a better us." Subashini (Suba) Nadarajah is the Global Director of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at VMLY&R. She is responsible for promoting and celebrating diversity to increase cultural literacy, awareness, and acceptance within VMLY&R and through partnerships. Suba has also been an adjunct professor at the Kansas City Art Institute, where she taught branding and design systems. She believes that art and design, combined with storytelling, give our world a sense of connectivity. They're universal languages that bring people together. Sharing art is one of her utmost fundamental beliefs. When not at VMLY&R or teaching, Suba is a closet architect who designed her own home where she resides with her 7-year-old rescue blue merle sheltie. Her home was even featured in Dwell's online article "Your Rooms We Love." She is an aspiring equestrian, a world traveler, a photographer, an avid walker, and a Pilates lover who finds balance in life through meditation and living mindfully. Guiding meditation and sharing how to live a mindful life has become one of Suba's many life aspirations. In a recent KC TED Talk, she discussed how powerful our breath can be when we are mindful of its virtues and powers.To learn more about Holden Village, visit: http://www.holdenvillage.org or to listen to more audio recordings visit: http://audio.holdenvillage.orgThe Holden Village Podcast is accessible through Apple iTunes, Google Play Music, Spotify, TuneIn, iHeart Radio, and most podcast apps.
