EP230: Living a Heart-Minded Life with Sarah Blodin

Author: Kristen Manieri February 7, 2023 Duration: 49:19

Whether we're aware of it or not, most of us spend a lot of time in our thoughts and use our minds to navigate the world. For Sarah Blondin, there's another layer to living, a dimension we're missing when we forget to turn towards our hearts to connect with ourselves and the world around us. In her book, Heart Minded: How to Hold Yourself and Others in Love, she invites readers to come home to themselves and uses centering practices to help us return to a place of groundedness and connection to a deep knowing within.
