Welcome to the very first episode of "True Peace in a Pod!" In this episode, hosts Gail McNeill, Venerable Nick Santacitto, and Venerable Michael Viradhammo introduce themselves and share the inspiring story of how their paths crossed. Discover how Gail found light and peace through Venerable Nick’s YouTube videos during a dark time in her life, and how this connection grew into a shared vision to create a peaceful community through this podcast.

We’ll dive into the basics of mindfulness and meditation, explaining how these practices can transform your daily life. Whether you’re new to mindfulness or looking for practical ways to find more peace and balance, this episode will give you a fresh perspective and tools to get started. We also answer some audience questions and end with a calming guided meditation to help you centre yourself.

Join us on this exciting journey as we kick off "True Peace in a Pod!" – a podcast dedicated to helping you find true peace in the midst of life’s chaos.
