Jamie Bristow is a renowned mindfulness teacher and the Director of the Mindfulness Initiative. Since 2013 he has worked in research and advocacy around the skilful adoption of mindfulness practices in society - most famously by running an ongoing mindfulness programme for UK politicians. He recently co-authored a report around the link between mindfulness and agency that touches on many of the themes we've explored on Rebel Wisdom. In this Wisdom Gym session he explains why mindfulness is necessary for the times we live in, and how it relates to agency and sovereignty.
