Hey friends, welcome back to the HX podcast! We are kicking off something really exciting—an eight-part series all about meditation. I know some of you may be thinking, “Meditation? Really?” But before you roll your eyes, hear me out! This is a short, bite-sized challenge with just two-minute meditations, so no heavy lifting required. You can totally do this. The benefits of meditation are amazing (and scientifically tested)... better sleep, more focus, reduced stress, and even improved resilience, both physically and mentally. So, I’m inviting you to try it with me.
In this first episode, we dive into mindfulness meditation. Now, mindfulness is probably what comes to mind when you hear “meditation,” but it’s not about clearing your brain (because, spoiler alert, that’s impossible). It’s about being present with what you’re feeling and sensing, acknowledging it, and letting it go. We did it together for just two minutes, and I’m asking you to reflect on how it felt. Did it work for you? Maybe next time, try focusing on something different—your breath, a sound, or even a mantra. The goal here is to explore and find what clicks for you.
I’ll be back with the next meditation in this series, so stay tuned and keep reflecting on what works for you!
