Today's special guest is Emma Seppala. Emma is a lecturer at the Yale School of Management as well as the science director of Stanford University's Center for Compassion and Altruism Research. She's the author of a wonderful book called "The Happiness Track". We were delighted to have her as a guest. She had only a small window of availability so this episode is a bit shorter than most but we're happy for the time we did have. We talk about the benefits of breathing exercises and mindfulness. You will get something out of this episode, I promise. Thanks for listening.  Follow Joe List: @Joelistcomedy New episodes of Mindful Metal Jacket drop every Thursday via The Laugh Button.
