This is the riveting ninth (of twelve)  episodes of The Practically Mindful Moment podcast series.  PMM's are brief bits of  featured information on concepts and tactics from Dr. Greg Sazima's new book, Practical Mindfulness: A Physician's No-Nonsense Guide to Meditation for Beginners (Mango Media, release date 1/19/2021). 

Each PMM clocks in at a user-friendly ten minutes or so; just a brief tuning in, learning opportunity, and brief guided exercise in mindfulness.  (And a quick, shameless plug for the book.)
 
In this episode, Dr. S presents the hallowed instructions in engaging the basic practice.  It features a digital orchestra and a sample of Antonio Carlos Jobim's classic, "The Girl From Ipanema."  The guided meditation that finishes the podcast with a sampler of two different style of breath work.  Enjoy!

PM is available for pre-order, from Mango Publishing and other booksellers:
