Don’t give up on meditation!
I’ve had so many people say to me that they “can’t”meditate because they’re “bad” at it! “My mind just won’t be quiet!” Guess what? You noticing that your mind is thinking…that’s the first step to meditation 🫨 give yourself some grace! You just did a meditative “rep” 😂 it’s absolutely a muscle that you have to work out! Every time you notice your mind has wandered- lovingly say to yourself something like “hmm, there goes my creative mind again!” And refocus on your breathing or the meditation you’re listening to❤️
For me, sitting quietly in lotus for indefinite amounts of time is truly admirable, but just not what works best for my brain in this stage of my life. I need to move, I need to be working with my hands! It’s about finding what works for you, what helps take your focus in a positive and healthy way. Don’t compare your meditation practice to anyone else’s because it is unique to each person! You got this, let’s get those happy brain chemicals! 💪

Meditation is often misunderstood, with many believing it requires sitting still for long periods. However, meditation can take many forms! Engaging in activities like walking in nature, journaling, dancing, or even baking can channel your energy positively, allowing you to be fully present. These activities can cultivate mindfulness, serving as a meditative practice just as traditional meditation does. The key is to find what resonates with you personally. Embrace your style - whether it’s focusing on your breath during yoga, expressing creativity through art, or simply enjoying solitude in nature. Remember, meditation adapts to your needs and can change with time, so keep exploring new approaches that align with your journey toward self-improvement and tranquility.
I have been watching Next Level Soul podcasts, and now the process of meditation makes more sense as to why people meditate. The podcasts are so inspiring!!🥰
