What’s your relationship with the meditative arts? Tried meditation but gave up because of being ‘too busy brained’? Think Tai Chi and Qi Gong is for the elderly only? Find it hard to keep a regular practice? Maybe it’s just overwhelming as to ‘what’ to exactly do and it’s a worry it’s ‘not working’?On this week’s show I invited Jeff Patterson who has been practicing, studying and teaching in the meditative arts for over 30 years and I can confirm, even just speaking with Jeff, by the end of our time together I was calm, centred and had a super productive day, despite having just moved house!
