Sounds True.com. com. edge. Today my guest is Sally Kempton, a meditation teacher who has immersed herself in the world of meditation for over four decades and has earned a reputation as a highly experienced, gifted, and insightful meditation teacher.

Sally's approach to meditation draws on her many years of training closely with Swami Mukdenanda, along with her deep knowledge

of Kundalini and subtle energies.

She has maintained her initial training as a journalist throughout her life,

writing and editing magazines, publishing books, and being a regular columnist for a period of time in Yoga Journal.

Sounds True, we'll be releasing Sally Kempton's new book,

Meditation for the Love of it,

as well as the audio program Beginning Meditation.
