Can you actually sit in silence for five minutes without reaching for your phone? If the answer is no, you're giving away your power to everyone and everything except yourself—and it's costing you more than you realize.
This week on The Big and Small Podcast, Jason and Marit dismantle the fluffy meditation mythology and reveal what recentering actually means. This isn't about quieting your mind (spoiler: that's impossible). This is about developing the ability to observe yourself so you can stop being controlled by your internal chaos and start directing your own life.
From a chiropractic clinic conversation to the neuroscience of why your brain is running 150 channels simultaneously, this episode exposes why elite performers treat meditation like the competitive advantage it is—while everyone else stays distracted and mediocre.
