Reclaim Your Brain: Release Stress with Mindful Meditation (The Level Up Edition - Episode 28 Part 2)

Reclaim Your Brain: Release Stress with Mindful Meditation
Episode 28 – The Level Up Edition

In this episode of the Mind Game podcast, we explore the impacts of prolonged stress, why our body responds the way it does, and delve into into an example of a meditation practice. We begin with an evolutionary perspective on how stress helped early humans survive and its negative impacts on modern health. We consider how chronic stress causes mental, physical, and cognitive issues, and how meditation can help mitigate these effects. The host shares her personal journey with meditation, including challenges like the 'meditation detox period' and the benefits she has experienced. The episode includes insights from Emily Fletcher’s Ziva meditation techniques and encourages listeners to consider meditation as a tool to improve energy, sleep, and overall mental clarity.

** I mention my own journey into meditation.  I’ve just finished the Ziva Online course with Emily Fletcher and it’s jumpstarted my confidence and ability to meditate. I've included the links below in case you are curious.
