Tom, 45, is devoted family man committed to spending quality time with his wife and twin children in Bondi, Sydney. Such an appreciation for balance was the result of an indulgent and overworked lifestyle. During his 26-year career as a broker at Sydney’s leading financial institutions, Tom was the opposite of calm and far from centred. His life was characterised by hard work, hard play and minimal rest, leading to heightened anxiety, debilitating panic attacks and depression. At 29 he was told by doctors he had the body of a 37-year-old. Confronted with the prospect of taking anti-depressants for the rest of his life, Tom began his search for a natural alternative. He found the answer in STILLNESS, a 5000-year-old technique rooted in Vedic traditions. Today, whether at home, across the Pacific Ocean in Los Angeles, or in the tranquil rainforest of Bali, Tom sets aside 20 minutes twice a day to reboot his mind and body.
