How to Practice Mindfulness in Daily Life

Nov 06, 2020

The importance of mental health is increasingly coming to the forefront of people’s minds. And with this, so is the attention to mindfulness. New scientific findings continually confirm the effectiveness of mindfulness in helping to reduce stress and boost health and happiness. So what exactly is mindfulness and how can you bring it into your days so you can feel more peace regardless of what goes on in your life?

Mindfulness is the practice of coming fully into the present moment. It’s a way of experiencing life as it is without resistance. While we would like to think otherwise, a lot of the stress and tension we feel in our lives is self-induced. When we resist what is, we feel disempowered. Through mindfulness, that resistance can melt away as we learn to be more accepting while also taking more responsibility for our own happiness.

Whether your intention is to not get stressed so easily, to be more focused, or to be kinder to yourself or others, mindfulness is a...

How to Reduce Anxiety with Meditation

Oct 15, 2020

If you’re feeling more stress and anxiety than even before, you’re not alone. According to the latest study by the Census Bureau, a third of Americans are now showing signs of clinical anxiety or depression. Even before the pandemic, 1 in 4 Americans experienced depressed moods on a frequent basis. That has now doubled to every other American!

But the good news is that there are a lot of ways you can take care of your mental health so that you’re not part of this statistic. Meditation is scientifically proven to be one of them - and it doesn’t have to take more than 20-30 minutes of your day! When you feel more at peace, you will naturally radiate this to others in your life.

So what causes those feelings of anxiety, stress, or depression to begin with? While your life circumstances are certainly a factor, your reactions to them are even more essential. School probably didn’t teach you how to work with your inner mental dialogue to become more confident...

6 Ways Meditation Rewires Your Brain for Greater Happiness and Intelligence

Oct 08, 2020

While peacefully sitting in your meditation, you may not be aware of all the changes your brain is going through in that moment. Scientific evidence backing the beneficial effects of meditation seems to be coming out daily. Brain research provides us with a better understanding of how meditation causes changes such as helping us focus better or changing our long-term levels of happiness.

Just as we can strengthen our muscles, we can improve brain performance. Meditation is like a gym for our brains - making them bigger, smarter, and faster. The more we put those neurons to use, the stronger they get!

When you practice finding that space of calm within, you’re lifting the neural “muscles” of calm. And because this helps release stress, your body now has more energy to function at peak levels. When your brain doesn’t have to worry about fighting a threat (often nowhere to be found but in your mind), it can run much smoother!

Let’s look at six ways that...

We all crave more calm and peace in our lives. For too long, society has not been placing enough importance on the role mental health plays in our overall well-being.

What to Expect When You Start Meditating

Sep 21, 2020

When you first start meditating, you probably wonder what should happen during your meditations. You may be asking yourself if what you’re experiencing is “normal.” And while everyone’s meditation experience is unique, there are a few things that almost every meditator encounters. Knowing what these are will help you ease your mind the next time you sit down for your practice.

It’s important to start with this: meditation isn’t about getting anywhere! In a sense, expecting something specific to happen or not happen in your meditation is an oxymoron. It can be hard for our mind to imagine not having a goal in mind. 

We’re often conditioned to always have a target. But practicing meditation is about coming into the present moment to notice what is - without striving, judgement, or resistance. That is exactly why there is no right or wrong way to meditate. 

Yes, there are many different types and styles of meditation. Some direct your...
