Jon Krop, Founder of Mindfulness for Lawyers

Today, my guest is Jon Krop, the Founder of Mindfulness for Lawyers, which offers mindfulness programs for lawyers and legal professionals. After graduating from Brown University and Harvard Law School, Jon clerked on a federal appeals court and worked as a litigator at public-interest law firms in Los Angeles and New York City.

Jon has meditated for over a decade and studied with teachers from around the world. In 2014, he completed a seven-month, silent retreat and these days, he does about eight weeks of silent retreat per year. Jon lives in New York City, where his meditation practice keeps him from going nuts (more or less) there.
