Overwhelmed with insomnia and an incurable autoimmune disease,
Shannon Harvey needed to make a change. But while the award-winning
health journalist found plenty of recommendations on diet, sleep and
exercise, when she looked for the equivalent of a 30-minute workout
for her mental wellbeing, there was nothing.
Also worried
for the future mental health of her kids, who were growing up amidst
critical levels of stress, anxiety, depression and addiction,
Shannon enlisted a team of scientists to put meditation to the test.
Could learning to quiet our busy minds be the simple solution the
world so desperately needs?

mindfully Shannon is poked, prodded, scanned and screened. After a
30,000 kilometre journey from Australia to the bright lights of
Manhattan and the dusty refugee camps of the Middle East -
interviewing the world's leading mindfulness experts along the way -
what begins as a quest for answers transforms into a life-changing
experience.
From the director of the internationally
acclaimed documentary of the same name,My Year of Living Mindfullyis filled with compelling stories, groundbreaking science, and
unexpected insights that go to the heart of what it means to be
