About this episode

Mindfulness – the wellness buzzword of the past few years. We all know it can help us improve our lives, but most of us struggle with starting and maintaining it throughout the ebbs and flows of life.


In this episode, I chat with Tamim Nehan, who's a certified mindfulness meditation teacher, kickboxing coach, and global talent manager. Whether you're just starting your mindfulness journey or need a refresher, tune in for invaluable tips on making mindfulness a lifestyle, rather than a one-off habit in your day. We close out with a bonus guided meditation!
