About Ann Swanson:
I dealt with anxiety so extreme I’d pass out, chronic pain since my teens, and debilitating perfectionism. Listen, if I can meditate, anyone can. Now, I help busy people with busy minds meditate using science-backed practices that work. My first book, *Science of Yoga*, has sold over half a million copies, and my second book was just released. I collaborated with a Harvard meditation researcher and a New York Times illustrator to write *Meditation for the Real World*. I'm excited to teach your audience how to cross meditation off their to-do list and, instead, integrate realistic practices into their lives! You don't have to sit in silence on the floor for 20 minutes a day; even one-minute meditations can make a surprising and immediate difference!
