Did you know that by learning how to meditate you can improve your sleep and immune function, sharpen your focus, attention and memory, and increase your productivity and sex drive? Meditation has been studied for years and there are stark neural differences between people who meditate and people who don’t. But just like sticking to a training program or a diet can be a challenge for some people, so is meditation.

In this episode of the Knowledge and Mileage Podcast, Kris chats with Emily Fletcher who breaks down the barriers on mediation and shows us just how easy it is to start a practice that will benefit your entire future.

Emily Fletcher is the founder of Ziva Meditation and the leading expert in meditation for extraordinary performance. Her book, Stress Less, Accomplish More, debuted at #7 out of all books on Amazon.
