Welcome to The Mindfully Podcast

In this introductory episode, host Axel Wennhall explores the idea at the heart of the podcast: mindfulness is not a special state we need to create, but a natural capacity for awareness that we can learn to recognize and return to.

Through conversations with some of the world’s most inspiring teachers and guides, the podcast explores what it means to live a more present life. It is not only about waking up and discovering presence, but also about waking down and learning to live from it with greater wisdom and compassion.

Axel also shares the story behind the podcast, what to expect from future episodes and how The Mindfully Podcast grew out of the Swedish podcast Meditera Mera and the meditation app Mindfully.
