What are Andrew Keaveney's meditation films about?

Andrew's films are about what meditation and breathwork look like in real lives: a busy mind trying to sit still, students facing burnout, people in recovery, and a not so silent retreat. Several are practical, including two guided meditations. Others are personal stories from travels and from time with his teacher, plus short pieces on karma and Ayurvedic doshas.
