Do you sometimes feel like you’ve lost touch with your inner self? That stress and overwhelm are your constant companions? And that inner peace is not realistic for “someone like you”? 

Enter Gary Gorrow, one of the world’s foremost master meditation teachers and Ayurvedic experts. Gary’s message is simple but life changing. He says that there is incredible power in getting present, and that this power is accessible to ALL of us — no matter how time-poor or stressed you may be, and no matter how many times you’ve tried (and “failed”) to start a meditation habit. And in this hugely inspiring episode, Gary is sharing the Vedic practices that can help you tap into your inner stillness, access your inner power, and create a happier and healthier you from the inside out.

Gary Gorrow is a master Vedic meditation practitioner, qualified Ayurvedic health coach, mindfulness expert, and founder and director of Soma Byron (a world class retreat sanctuary in Australia’s Byron Bay). With over 15 years experience, he’s earned a reputation as one of the best mindfulness teachers in the business and is respected among his peers as a ‘teacher of teachers’.

Gary has worked with thousands of people from all walks of life — including Hollywood A-listers, elite sporting organisations, leading companies (like Google), and thousands of everyday folk seeking peace and transformation. He’s passionate about empowering people with knowledge and techniques that enable them to re-engineer their lives and find a gateway to their highest expression.

I’ve known Gary for more than ten years and during that time, his insights have transformed and deepened my personal practice and helped skyrocket my spiritual evolution. He truly is one of a kind, and I’m beyond thrilled that I get to share his genius with you in this conversation… prepare to have your mind blown!

So if you want to gain access to the silent inner field of potentiality that exists inside you, unlock the secrets of the world’s most powerful practice, and discover the single best way to model mindfulness for your children, then pop in those earbuds… this one’s for you.
