Hello and welcome to another episode of Mindfulness Plus.

I'm your host Thomas Mekonki.

Thanks so much for listening today.

I'm joined in the studio with Kelly Boys and I'm really excited to have a conversation with you.

Just for the audience here, you've done a lot of interesting things, and I'm not going to name all of them.

But you have a book on mindfulness called The Blind Spot Effect, How to Stop Missing What's Right in front of you.

We'll have something to say about that.

You've worked with the United Nations and training staff on the ground around the world in how to apply mindfulness to their field work.

Is that right?

Yeah.

Okay.

So more to come on that one.

We've both worked in prisons for many years, and I'm not sure if that will come up,

but you were working in the San Quentin State Prison. It's part of the prison yoga project.

Yeah. Okay. Lovely. Also, I was interested, we're going to talk about Yoga Nidra. You're trained in

yoga Nidra in the traditions specifically of Kashmir Shivism. Some of my students over the years have heard me kind of rant and rave about how

elegantly shivism works with polarity or duality.

So maybe we'll get to play in that a little bit.

You've had a fascinating career and been a lot of places at a young age.

And I'm just excited to have you in the studio and hear what's in your heart.

Let's practice these days.

Thanks for having me here.
