Episode 082 How to create mental fitness

This episode is my little download from the universe this week while I was out for a run. It's my reflections on how different running can be when I shift what's going on in my mind (i.e. the chat about how I hate running!) and ask myself — how can I let this feel easier? I have used this same approach and this very same question in my meditation practice for years. In fact, it's what has helped me maintain a consistent meditation practice over the years despite having two little kids and all the messy life things. So I wanted to talk today about what it might mean to create not physical but mental fitness. Because we're always training the mind in something. Sometimes that's worry, or stress or distraction. Or we can choose to create mental fitness by training our minds in resilience, gratitude, joy and presence. We choose by what we practice.

Sending you all love and if you enjoy this episode, I'd love for you to share it with a few friends. This helps me support this tiny podcast more than you know!

* in this episode I mention my monthly meditation support membership Breathing Space. It's there for anyone who wants to keep up a meditation practice. If you resonate with my messy luminous approach and you wish you were more consistent about taking time to connect inward, this is where you want to be. And I'd love to spend more time with you! xx s
