Toby Sola dove into meditation in his teens when he was introduced to some contemplative practices through a neighbor who was willing to share them with him. Lyme Disease then caused him to dive even deeper into a meditation practice in a time in need. I loved this conversation because you can tell how long he's been practicing and how deeply he's experienced the benefits of meditation. We chat about:

His first introduction to meditation through a neighbor that was into shamanistic practices
How Lyme Disease caused him to dive deeper into meditation
