About the Instructor
Ayman Mukerji Househam is on a mission to create a mindful world by demystifying its biological benefits.
A former Wall Street executive, a longtime meditator, and yogi, Ayman now teaches mindfulness to families, corporations, and individuals. She also researches mindfulness physiology. Her recent scientific publications unravel how mindfulness practice changes our immune system, gut, and even our genes. This is the topic of Ayman’s TEDx talk. Ayman hopes to propagate mindfulness and eventually create a peace movement.
A clinical social worker in training, Ayman combines Eastern meditation with Western therapy and frequently speaks on the topic. Ayman co-authored a book on the neural findings in autism spectrum disorder, and she works with children diagnosed with autism and ADHD.
