Episode notes
Meditation Is Skillful Mental Training
- Meditation is a training that produces healthy, positive mind states rather than a mystical blanking of the mind.
- Regular practice reshapes mental habits and supports emotional clarity.
Use Longer Exhalations To Reset
- Slow your breathing and make exhalations longer than inhalations to activate the parasympathetic system.
- This signals your brain to rest and lets you recover quickly during a stressful day.
Count Breaths To Build Focus
- Practice focused-attention breath meditation by counting breaths and returning when your mind wanders.
- When your mind drifts, notice it without judgment and gently bring attention back to the breath.
