Description

Do you have trouble shutting off your busy mind? In this episode, I discuss why we need to respond instead of reacting, and I reveal the times when you need meditation the most. Most importunately, I’m giving practical ways that you can start treating the symptoms of a busy mind (for the long term)!  

Things you will learn in this episode: 

• What’s the difference between masking the symptoms of a busy mind and treating the underlying cause 
  
• What happens with your mind’s “flight or fight mode” when you’re thinking about work versus real danger 
  
• Ways to trigger your amygdala less 
  
• The reason some people feel like they can’t meditate 
  
• Different techniques that could work for you in your own life!
