Imagine a Broadway performer at the height of her career-starring in "A Chorus Line," living her childhood dream-yet suffering from insomnia, anxiety, and premature graying at just 27. This was Emily Fletcher before meditation transformed her life. After noticing a fellow actress who remained joyful despite understudying five demanding roles, Fletcher discovered her secret weapon: meditation. Initially skeptical, Fletcher's desperation led her to try it. After just two hours of training, she slept through the night for the first time in 18 months. This transformation was so profound that she eventually left Broadway, traveled to India, and spent three years becoming a meditation teacher. Her journey reveals a powerful truth: the busier and more stressed you feel, the more you need meditation-not as a luxury, but as essential mental maintenance that actually creates more time than it takes.
