And it's usually never one thing. It's usually many things. So there's a term and emotional intelligence, or neuroscience, feel it to heal it. Therefore there's the feeling of it, and then there's the naming of it, name it to tame it. So I do both. I focus on what it is and feeling it, you know, what in my body, like, where is it? Am I tracking it somatically? Therefore Thoughts on Breathing One of the things that I teach and that I practice is what I call pattern interrupts. A pattern interrupt doesn't have to take a long time. What I encourage people to do and I do is three conscious breaths throughout my day, if I can remember to. When I have more time, I do other practices. Breath is huge for me, just really calming down using kind of the Andrew Weil is the 478  technique four inhale seven, hold, eight, exhale.

Nichols Bullying Story I have a coaching client who was brought to me because he had issues. It might be called bullying, or he had very little ability to react. He came across as a bully with people who were his subservience whether it was a staff or student. I was just starting to work with him, and he did it to me. I had asked him to do a number of things as part of our coaching agreement. I asked him to do a lot and he was a busy guy. And what I got back was intense. Therefore I was thinking, I just blew it with a coaching client. And I had to work by myself. So when talking about mindfulness, what I do is, swim. So I went swimming, and intense exercise is often one thing I will do when I'm feeling it. And then I had to talk to myself about that. And once I started talking to myself, and kind of calming down, I went, that was kind of amazing that this happened, if I'm his coach, I got an experience of it. Yes. So we were able to talk about it in our next session from me being more present and grounded and having to apologize to him because I realized I was asking a lot, but also for him to see. I asked him, What was your intention? And what you said to me in that email, he said, Well, it was very unfair what you were doing. And I said, would you like to know what the impact of that was? He said I guess. So I said, on a scale of one to 10, that's probably nine for me. So it actually began a real conversation. I mean, I think that was the moment he started to trust me. But those are skills that I now have that I didn't have when I was young.

Meditation is one easy way to fight the effects of daily stress, and take back control of our being. Just 20 minutes a day can reduce stress and help your brain to recharge. Meditation is a natural and rewarding human activity. If practiced regularly, meditation can produce remarkable results on physical, mental and emotional aspects of our being. There are tons of resources available out there: from podcast, to books, Youtube videos, and Ted talks. For resources to be easily accessible I am going to mention a few links in this podcast for you to refer to. Remember that there is no right or wrong way to meditate. There is only awareness and non-awareness. When you notice your thoughts wandering, you’ve moved into awareness. Simply bring your attention back to the breath and continue your practice. It’s that simple. With consistent practice, you will eventually know and feel the power of meditation. I would like to end this episode by Pema Chodron’s words – ‘Meditation is about seeing clearly the body that we have, the mind that we have, the domestic situation that we have, the job that we have, and the people who are in our lives. It's about seeing how we react to all these things. It's seeing our emotions and thoughts just as they are right now, in this very moment, in this very room, on this very seat. It's about not trying to make them go away, not trying to become better than we are, but just seeing clearly with precision and gentleness’ Resources for meditation- ‘Meditation: How to Meditate: A Practical Guide to Making Friends with Your Mind’ by Pema Chödrön Wherever You Go, There You Are by Jon Kabat-Zinn ‘Meditation: An in-depth guide’ by Ian Gawler ‘Mindfulness for Beginners: Reclaiming the Present Moment—and Your Life’ by Jon Kabat-Zinn How Mindfulness Meditation Redefines Pain, Happiness & Satisfaction – TEDxSFU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVwLjC5etEQ Body Scan Exercise with Jon Kabat-Zinn https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15q-N-_kkrU 3-Minute Mindful Breathing Meditation (to Relieve Stress) with Stop, Breathe & Think https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEfs5TJZ6Nk Two Minute Guided Meditation – The School of Life https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4rRjGhN-gs

We often feel we are a prisoner to our own minds. We are constantly wrestling with our thoughts and hate ourselves for our negative emotions. We either try to think our way out of the emotion, numb ourselves with busyness or project our self-hate onto others. The whole time we are doing everything we can to avoid our emotions at all costs. But the truth is there is infinite wisdom that lies deep within our emotions once we allow ourselves to be present with them. It is through meditating on these uncomfortable emotions that we find the peace and answers we have been looking for all along. Enjoy this week’s podcast and learn how to not only find peace with your monkey mind but see the invaluable wisdom it has to offer.
