Giovanni Dienstmann
Giovanni Dienstmann began practicing meditation and spirituality as a teenager and has since been formally initiated into several traditions, including Zen Buddhism, Advaita Vedanta, Raja Yoga and Mantra Yoga; he has maintained a daily meditation practice since March 2000 and describes over 12,000 hours of personal practice across roughly 70 techniques.
He currently teaches through Live and Dare, a widely-read meditation blog, offering self-paced courses, coaching for executives, entrepreneurs and artists, and periodic workshops and talks.
“So instead of willpower feeling like pushing a boulder uphill, it's more like rolling a boulder downhill.”Giovanni Dienstmann
