The Joy of Mindfulness Through Parenting (and Life) with Jaimal Yogis

Vitamin Joy with Shelby Stanger

Using Mindfulness to Find Joy as a Parent, and even not as a parent -- not that easy right now. Today’s guest,Jaimal Yogis, is a longtime friend, a dad to three boys under ten, a husband, an author, a speaker, and a mindfulness expert. Jaimal has written several bestselling books, including Saltwater Buddah, The Fear Project, and his latest book, which is a beautifully illustrated kid’s book (equally pleasing to adults) called Mop Rides the Waves of Life. It teaches kids about feelings through surfing. Jaimal and his wife are busy. She’s a CEO of a health technology company. He’s got a fulltime job. And they are moving houses right as we record this show. Since he’s so great about talking about mindfulness (the guy once tried to be a monk) I asked Jaimal tips and tricks about his own journey on finding joy through the chaos of parenthood, being a husband and just being a human in this time. This conversation made me feel calmer. I hope it does the same for you!
