My guest is Manoj Dias – author, teacher, speaker and co-founder of Open, a modern meditation organization based in California.
I have been using Open to participate in their January meditation and breathwork challenge, and it’s quickly becoming my favorite mindfulness app. If you’d like to experience it for yourself, download the Open app here.
