In this enlightening episode, Bahar is joined by Manish Mallas, a neuroscience-informed mindfulness teacher whose lineage traces back to the Buddha himself. Blending ancient wisdom with modern neuroscience, Manish brings clarity and depth to the practice of mindfulness for contemporary life.

The conversation explores the transformative power of mindfulness, breathwork, and emotional regulation, revealing how these tools can enhance presence, performance, and peace, especially during midlife transitions.

Together, they discuss the role of ancestry in shaping spiritual awareness, the science behind meditation and breath, and the importance of taking radical personal responsibility for one’s emotional wellbeing. Manish also unpacks how scent and sensory awareness can influence emotional states and how a consistent mindfulness practice can lead to profound personal awakening.

This episode, in partnership with Gwinganna Lifestyle Retreat,  invites listeners to slow down, look inward, and embrace the art of conscious living in a distracted world.
