Summary
Today you're in for a special treat. I interview Ari Meisel, author of "The Art of Less Doing: One Entrepreneur's Formula to a Beautiful Life." Ari is a productivity expert who shares very doable ways to optimize, automate and outsource most anything in your both your business and professional life.
This is part 3 of a 7-Part Slow Down Meditation Series, Episodes 800-806.
As always, you don't have to do the meditation techniques -- they are simply there to help you transition from your busy day to a state of stillness. The techniques also help to calm "monkey mind," when your thoughts continuously interrupt your meditation.
