Finding Compassion: Manoj Dias on Self-Kindness and Sobriety

So I think it's just evident if we can take a step back from being so individualistic and being so connected to acquiring more and more and more, and just see that we are interdependent with so many different factors in our life, and not just other humans, but the nature, the earth, the food that we eat, the air that we breathe, there's so much that we rely on, and I don't think we can survive as this hyper-independent species that I think we've been championing over the course of the last 50 years.
What happens when a corporate professional trades spreadsheets for meditation mats? In this episode of 'After Alcohol', Leisa Leon and Leanne Franks chat with Manoj Dias, a meditation teacher and lululemon ambassador, about his incredible journey. Manoj shares how he transitioned from the corporate world to founding A—SPACE Meditation Studio, becoming a beacon for accessible and inclusive wellness. Growing up in North Queensland as an ethnically ambiguous individual, Manoj faced unique challenges that shaped his perspective on life and wellness.
He opens up about reassessing his relationship with alcohol and how meditation has helped him and others find calm in a chaotic world. The conversation also touches on the importance of representation in the wellness industry, highlighting the need for diversity and inclusion. Manoj's insights into self-compassion and community are both inspiring and practical, offering listeners valuable takeaways for their own journeys.
This episode is a heartfelt exploration of personal growth, mindfulness, and the power of being kind to yourself and others.
