America's leading champion of the link between meditation and higher performance discusses the importance of developing a daily practice.

Most of us appreciate the theoretical benefits of regular meditation, but many find it hard to fit into our already packed lives.

In this lively conversation with host Vishen Lakhiani, Emily Fletcher demonstrates the paybacks of meditation.

A former Broadway performer who felt stress aging her prematurely, Fletcher turned things around after opening herself up to meditation.

Fletcher runs the Ziva Meditation School in New York City, specializing in meditation for extraordinary performance.

Fletcher has taught at Google and Harvard and hosts Mindvalley's 'M-Word' podcast.

As MindValley host Lakhiani is himself an advocate of the benefits of meditation, the pair build on each others' insights until the case seems all but irrefutable — as long as we stick with it.
