The business of mindfulness has boomed in recent years, but meditation, essential oils and yoga isn’t new or trendy to me, I grew up with a mum who made her own tofu in the 80s and went on silent retreats in the 90s. I had been sticking my toe into meditation for decades, but the practice had never stuck and then 2 years ago, almost without realising it, I formed a daily meditation practice and it completely transformed the way I lived.
