BIET SIMKIN I Meditation + Breathwork Leader

Raised by a Shaman in New York City, Biet has spirituality in her blood but she turned away from it and into a life of sex, drugs, rock’n’roll and loss. She speaks about the series of life changing events that eventually lead her back to become a world-renowned meditation leader and breath work teacher dubbed the “David Bowie of Meditation.”  

She’s the co-founder of Club SODA, a sober-curious event series. Featured in Vogue, Forbes, ELLE, Harper’s Bazaar and TIME magazine. She’s also the author of an award-winning book, Don’t Just Sit There, 44 Insights to Get your meditation practice off the cushion and into the real world.

In this episode, Biet candidly shares her story of hitting rock bottom and getting sober 11 years ago. She also explains how this process allowed her to harness her sexual energy and direct it into a successful creative career in meditation, music and writing. She shares insights from her book on how to apply mindfulness in the real world.
