Zefyr Life Welcomes Its First Guest on ‘Whole Life’: Best-Selling Author on Mindfulness Dr. Danny Penman.
LONDON, UK, October 20, 2016 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Best-selling Author and Award-Winning journalist Dr. Danny Penman has granted Zefyr Life a two- hour conversation on mindfulness that has been edited into a 15 minute episode accessible to viewers on Zefyr Life. A conversation in which Dr. Penman discusses his life-changing accident and the multiple benefits behind mindfulness and meditation.
‘Danny Penman is not some sort of Guru preaching mindfulness and trying to rally huge crowds into a movement. His writings come from a generous place: speaking from personal experience having survived a dramatic life-changing accident and trying to help others who may find in mindfulness a truly healing discipline and a life-enhancing companion’ said Florian David, Editor- In-Chief and Co-Founder of Zefyr Life.
Lina Daugirdaite, Co-Founder of Zefyr Life and Creative Director, added: We are absolutely thrilled and grateful to have Dr. Penman on the Premiere of our new show. It is called ‘Whole Life’ because a succesful life can not be posed in mere careeristic terms: we would like to help ourselves and our viewers understand what makes a happy, fullfilling, meaningful life. This seems to require taking care both of our minds and our bodies and that’s what this series will explore. The opening to our show features actual NASA footage from the Cassini and Voyager missions, and music courtesy of the beautiful Moby whom we’d like to thank here.
