Editor’s Note: If the last twelve months have taught us anything, it’s that life is unpredictable. As we’ve all navigated quarantines, limited social interactions, and fallout from a pandemic in our own unique ways, the importance of strengthening our cerebral chops has become abundantly clear. Finding and maintaining inner peace through challenging times can feel intimidating and isolating. In that spirit, we’re excited to partner with acclaimed author, surfer, and yogi, Jaimal Yogis to launch his brand new Guide to Meditation and Mindfulness. “This course is a great entry point if you’ve never meditated before, and it’s also valuable if you’ve been meditating a long time and reached a plateau,” says Yogis. “There’s almost no better feeling in the world than breaking through fear or something that’s been holding you back.”
