Podcasts about mindfulness course

Hello, fellow mom founders and corporate executives!  Before we dive into today's episode, let me paint a picture for you: it's Maycember, and life is throwing everything it's got at us—projects, unexpected snafus, and plans shifting faster than we can keep up. But amidst this chaos, there's a beacon of hope: a way to navigate this month with more presence, less stress, and a whole lot more emotional and mental bandwidth. Today, we're going to explore how to increase your mental bandwidth through mindfulness, drawing from valuable insights and personal experiences. From the power of loving awareness to the neuroscience benefits of mindfulness, we'll uncover practical tools to help you thrive in both your personal and professional life. So, grab a cozy spot and let's dive in! Be sure to find me https://www.instagram.com/melissallarena/ First off, let's talk about the power of loving awareness. In our fast-paced culture, it's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of trying to reach our goals. But what if, instead of constantly striving for the next thing, we practiced loving awareness? This means being fully present with what is, without judgment. This loving awareness is also a synonym for mindfulness and one way that has helped me increase my mental bandwidth is by training in and practicing meditating with the big idea of responding to what is with loving awareness. Ultimately, meditating in this context is about embracing the beauty of the present moment, even amidst the chaos of Maycember. Next, let's explore the concept of mindfulness as a tool for softening our approach with our kids, employees, even clients. As a second-generation New Yorker, I know firsthand the benefits of moving swiftly through city streets. But I also learned that this intense approach wasn't serving me well as a mom and sometimes as a coach/mentor. In business, when I am helping a mom founder do from timid to bold in her goals, and asks, there is always impostor syndrome that pops up, old stories, deep insecruties, emotional challenging moments. I have learned over the last 12-years that there is a time for tough love but also for compassion and empathy….what's I can bare….is different than what you can bare and sometimes you can bare more than me. That's when I decided to learn how to meditate and embrace mindfulness. By softening our approach and practicing mindfulness, we can cultivate a deeper sense of empathy and compassion for ourselves and those around us." Chances are we work with fellow working moms and everyone has their own situations they are working through to make it through this Maycember. And finally, let's consider the neuroscience benefits of mindfulness. Studies have shown that mindfulness practices can lead to increased resilience, stability, and the ability to concentrate. For me, this has been an incredible shift. Imagine that you are confronted with a highly stressful and high stakes decision. This is the norm for mom founders and corporate executives. Full stop. Chances are you will say one thing or decide one way if you are operating from a reactive point. Meanwhile, if you have mindfulness tools in your back pocket then you can use them even if it means taking the world's deepest breathe and then be able to thoughtfully respond to a touch situation and say a completely different thing and in a different tone that will be received favorably….ie. in a non-scathing way. I want to help you do that at work and home.So, by incorporating mindfulness into our daily lives, we can enhance our mental bandwidth and better navigate the challenges of Maycember. Now, let's talk about how mindfulness specifically benefits working moms in business. As a mom myself, I understand the unique challenges we face in balancing our professional and personal lives. Mindfulness offers us a powerful tool to manage stress, increase focus, and make better decisions. It helps us stay grounded in the present moment, even when our minds are racing with deadlines and responsibilities. By cultivating mindfulness, we can become more effective leaders, more empathetic colleagues, and ultimately, more fulfilled individuals. In fact, committing to becoming a meditation practitioner and getting certified in Tara Brach and Jack Kornfield's two-year program has transformed my life. It's made me a more patient mom, a better listener to my husband, and has helped me increase my emotional and mental bandwidth. And I want the same benefits and more for you. Join me for a LIVE Intro to Mindfulness Course, starting on May 20th at 7 pm CST. We'll meet for four sessions, each session focusing on a different aspect of mindfulness. But remember, this is a LIVE course and will not be recorded. Spots are limited, so don't wait!"Also, there is zero experience necessary with mindfulness nor do you need any privacy either – that's why we have a mute button! Go to Instagram @melissallarena and send me a DM today. Otherwise, email me at melissa@melissallarena.com. Let's embark on this journey together!"  https://www.instagram.com/melissallarena/  

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Benji. We talked about his own journey into chess, including the thriving London chess club scene. Then we talked about Benji's work with mindfulness and chess. Benji gave a lot of useful suggestions about how tournament players can think about their situation and how breathing and other exercises can address these issues. We wrapped up with a conversation about how data science can interact with chess.

Hey Team!This week we're joined by Ying Deng, known as ADHD Asian Girl across social media. I was able to get to know Ying a bit at the recent International ADHD Conference and thought she'd be a great guest for the show. Meditation is something that I've wanted to discuss on the show for quite a while now, but it also isn't something I'm super knowledgeable about so it was great to have a chance for this discussion.In our conversation today we get into what mindfulness and mediation actually is - and some about what it isn't, since meditation isn't exactly something we get an accurate picture of from popular media. We talk about some of the reasons that mediation can be beneficial for ADHD as well as some of the strategies to help bring meditation into our lives because ADHD can also make it a hard habit to start.Be sure to check out all of Ying's Mindfulness Course orcheckout where she's on the web with her LinktreeFeel free to ask me a question on my Contact PageFind the full show note at HackingYourADHD.com/169This Episode's Top Tips We can engage in mindfulness during daily activities like putting on socks or brewing coffee. By focusing on the sensations we can work on being present in the moment.ADHD can make it hard for us to build our practice so we can mix up our routine with guided and unguided meditations, sit outside to connect with nature or engage in mindful movements to cater to how we're feeling on any given day.We don't need to meditate for long periods and if we find that challenging, start with shorter, more manageable sessions and gradually increase the duration as we build the habit.Body doubling can be a great way for us to get into a meditation practice. Partner up with someone or join a community for meditation sessions to make the practice more engaging and accountable.

Newmarket-on-Fergus will play host to a mindfulness course towards the end of January. The course, which will run for six weeks, will cover a variety of themes, while also exploring the concept of “imposter syndrome” and changing your inner voice to boost self-confidence in the workplace. For more on this, on Wednesday's Morning Focus Alan Morrissey was joined by Founder of the course and Mindfulness & Positive Psychology Coach, Louise Lynch.

About Nathan Todd   Nathan was born 8 weeks premature with Cerebral Palsy and didn't learn to walk until the age of 4. He's the creator and host of ‘No Label Live , Peel back the label to reveal the authentic you.' The show is for anyone who is ready to use their voice and share their story but feels trapped by the expectations of others. Nathan is also the author of Empower Yourself: Awaken The B.E.A.S.T. Within. He's also the co-creator of the ‘Mindfulness Course' with Katarina Gleisberg.  A 14-Day Mindfulness Mini-Course to support teachers and caregivers seeking relief from strong emotions.  On This Episode   Nathan shares how learned to drive using hand controls, graduated college, and learned from an early age that you're going to fall, the thing that makes the difference is your ability to get up and walk through your fire. How he saw that people can be limited by a label being placed on them, usually by society, and how it can become their reality. How he realized was this isn't a disability issue, rather it's a human issue. The work he's been doing over developing the message of ‘No Label Defines Me'. What 34 years of life have taught him is often it feels like humans are navigating a world that wasn't designed for us, and to live a ‘No Label Defines Me' life you must learn to adapt & act. Through eradicating labels, Nathan's mission is to Eradicate Loneliness and help people get reconnected with their true self.

This program was developed and researched by Duke University, the program helps students learn to live with less stress and to manage life more effectively. Each session teaches and provides time to practice both a skill and a meditation. Between classes, students are asked to practice for 10 minutes a day — research shows that mindfulness and meditation are extremely successful when they are actually applied. Students will receive access to the KORU app, which provides an easy guide for daily practice, and they will receive feedback and support from the facilitator through the app. Want to get involved?

“I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy.” ― TagoreBuilding on the the previous week's episode on meaning and purpose (but also standing alone), this episode is about - no big deal - fulfillment. Big topic, but what if fulfillment wasn't some huge "ultimate aspiration", but a natural emotional state that we can tap into at any time - all we need is the right tools. Discussed inside:Why do high achievers (let's say wealthy ones too) seek opportunities for service? And why could they do your "lowly" service job with more joy and enthusiasm than you?Service is the arena that fulfillment can be 1) cultivated 2) fumbled with (in a valuable constructive way 3) delivered to others.Are you serving from a place of believing that like you're lacking something? How shifting out of that mindset transforms your relationship to your work and the effectiveness with which you do what you do.Your body remembers all the times that life sucked. And those programs will continue to run and lead your mind to believe that you are unsafe, deficient and lacking something. Learn how to heal that with meditation.Want to incorporate these principles more thoroughly into your life? I'm hosting Free Live Meditation & Mindfulness Course!

In episode #2 of the Mindful Life Podcast I present an exert from my Introduction to Mindfulness Course. I discuss some key Mindfulness concepts, what it is, some examples of mindful activities and exercises, where it originated, and how it can help us. I also unpack the essential components of Mindfulness from a Buddhist perspective along with some of the barriers and obstacles that we all need to work on to lead our best mindful life. I explore gratitude, kindness and compassion, non judgment, the ego, attachment, resistance vs acceptance, suffering, impermanence and of course letting go. Having an understanding of the essential components of Mindfulness and some of the barriers to living a mindful life can help us to develop insight and to make the unconscious conscious. Once we develop awareness this may assist us to understand not only our own ways of thinking and being but it can also help us understand the motivations and behaviours of others.

I've always had the “eat right and exercise” down pat, as well how to grow my online brand, but I've never realized how I could be completely nourished in one area of my life, but malnourished in others. There's a famine in my soul and it's holding me back from that next level.   I had to ask myself: What feeling do I want to have in that next level? What non food way can I nourish my soul? What more could I do if my soul was nourished? How can I add those things as necessity in my day   Need more help?

Recorded at a mindfulness course in Leeds called Deepening Mindfulness. The meditation is led by mindfulness teacher and psychotherapist, Danny Ford.

Welcome to Episode 12. This meditation is designed to help you re-energize yourself when you are feeling flat or deflated. You will notice that I reverse the usual body relaxation technique, to help you feel more grounded, centered and uplifted. I do recommend that you stand for this meditation, the best position is to stand in a kind of tree pose (Feet hip width apart, knees slightly bent, back straight and arms rounded in front of your body, as if you are hugging a tree). This pose allows you to get even more grounded and work with gravity to uplift your energy.  You can also do this meditation in your favorite sitting or lying position as well and use your creative imagination. If you have any questions please be in touch and remember to download your free Mindfulness Course at www.beyoubetrue.com.au. I look forward to hearing how you go, please leave me a comment here

Welcome to Episode 11. In this two minute meditation I teach you a simple yet effective breathing technique you can do throughout your day to get instant calmness. And yes it just takes 2 minutes. In case you find it hard to follow the guided version, here is the counting for this technique: inhale for 4 counts,hold for 3 counts, exhale for 6 counts, and then hold for 2 counts and repeat 8 times(This will give you 2 minutes of breathing when you follow a 15 second cycle). You will be amazed how relaxed, refreshed and refocused you feel after only 2 minutes of breathing. If you have any questions please be in touch and remember to download your free Mindfulness Course at www.beyoubetrue.com.au. I look forward to hearing how you go, please leave me a comment here.
