Episode 34: Josephine Atluri
It has become very difficult for people to focus on the present because they have a lot of responsibilities. We tend to lose sight of who we are and take life so seriously. However, with meditation, you will achieve those moments of stillness that will allow you to relieve stress and make better decisions.
In today’s episode, Josephine Atluri, a meditation coach and the host of the Responding to Life Podcast, talks about her journey, how to meditate, the importance of mindfulness, and being still.
