When life handed me an unexpected journey into fatherhood, it redefined my understanding of love and purpose. It's these profound shifts in identity and the pursuit of self-realisation that I discuss with Melvyn, the visionary behind the Mind Body Spirit Festivals and a mentor at Living Meditation. Together, we traverse the terrain of spirituality, how it intertwines with the roles we play, and the importance of finding a path that reflects our deepest values. Melvyn shares his transition to Krishna Bhakti and we consider how spiritual mentorship can illuminate the quest for a fulfilled life.

The vibrancy of spirituality doesn't just resonate in quiet meditation rooms; it's in the laughter of our children and the wisdom of our daily routines. In a heartwarming exchange, we reflect on the evolution of parenting and spirituality across generations, sharing personal stories that highlight the power of surpassing past conditioning. We examine the beauty of diversity in spiritual practices and how they can cultivate a deeper connection with the divine, within the context of our modern world.

Join us as we explore the ebbs and flows of life, the search for authenticity in spirituality, and the service of sharing those revelations with others.
