This episode, recorded live as a Wisdom Dharma Chat, features special guest Sarah Harding. Join Sarah and Daniel Aitken as they discuss Sarah’s newest release with Wisdom Severance: The Early Practice of Chö.

• various scientific approaches to mindfulness;
• her time in a three-year retreat and her journey translating sacred texts; and
• much more!
