Todays podcast is a little different. It is longer ☺️and is a recording of a live Webinar which was held by Inner Leadership in conjunction with 1880 Club here in Singapore. It includes a guided meditation as well as a discussion between Ng Yi Xian and Navin Amarasuriya on their meditative practices and journeys. 
Description: What does it mean to look within in the workplace? What are the tools that inspire deeper connections? Explore how meditation and other contemplative approaches can be applied in a Singaporean workplace. Each speaker has his own mindfulness practice and is exploring ways of sharing it with their organisation.
