Ayman Mukerji Househam MSW

Ayman Mukerji Househam is on a mission to create a mindful world by demystifying its biological benefits. Ayman is a former Wall Street executive. A long time meditator and yogi, Ayman now teaches mindfulness to families, corporations and individuals. She is also a researcher of mindfulness physiology (or as the academics call it – “psychoneuroimmunology”!) 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. She wants the world to hear the science behind the buzzword. Ayman hopes to propagate mindfulness and eventually create a peace movement.

A clinical social worker in-training, Ayman combines Eastern meditation with Western therapeutic techniques. She is an active speaker on the topic. Ayman is an author of a book on the neural findings in autism spectrum disorder. She works with children diagnosed with autism and ADHD.
