Discover how meditation can transform your mind and reality as Thom Walters shares over 40 years of insights and practical tips.


Learn to navigate stress and anxiety with mindfulness and uncover the limitless possibilities within your thoughts and beliefs.


Hey friends! I'm back with my good buddy Thom to chat about how meditation can be a game-changer for mental health.


Thom has been meditating for over 40 years - talk about experience! He shares how it's brought him comfort and wisdom during challenging times.


In this laid-back convo, we break down how thoughts literally create our reality. The key is figuring out which thoughts are "yours" versus borrowed.


Meditation helps you observe thoughts more objectively. We also discuss techniques for overcoming anxiety. By becoming more aware of your body's signals and separating your stuff from others' stuff, you can say "nope" to extra stress.


Thom explains how asking the right questions extracted his pain response after stubbing his toe as a kid. Wild! Just shows the power of mindset.


I share a vulnerable story about when my event prep triggered old anxiety patterns. Meditation helped me shift my state and come from the heart.


The key takeaway?


No matter how far you are in your practice, challenges will still pop up.


Meet them with self-compassion, not judgment. To get Thom's guidance on using meditation for anxiety relief, visit his website.


And stay tuned for more insights on living purposefully!
