Mindset Connection Episode 28: Tom Manni
Welcome to the Mindset Connection Podcast! Thank you for tuning in for our 28th episode. We continue to showcase amazing people who are truly giving their gifts to the world, and are striving to live a full and healthy life. Today’s guest, Tom Manni, is truly an example of someone who is living with pillars of wellness in mind. He shared his unique story of how he was called to yoga: working in construction, and in executive firms before a friend asked him to go to a yoga class. She already could tell that his energy was to be elevated on the mat. Tom was hooked from the first class, noting how calm and peaceful his mind felt during the class and afterwards. Tom deepened his love for yoga by becoming an instructor, and offering classes in multiple locations for everyone from young children to seniors. Tom told us that he feels the world is so busy, and that most people are not taking the time to disconnect from the noise and reconnect with themselves. Tom-also a world traveler-practices what he preaches, and shared his own rituals for keeping calm in a sometimes scary and frustrating world. He also kept it real-admitting that he does worry, gets really annoyed at those people who bring phones to yoga classes, loves his children and grandchildren, and really wants his wife to retire! Kudos to the man who left his own phone out in the car during the recording of this episode, and was 30 minutes early to arrive! Plus, he is the father of Melissa Girkesh-our podcast guest from episode 11. You will want to seek out a class with him after listening to his soothing and peaceful voice.
