Podcasts about mindfulness meditation

Caring for kids, aging parents, and work—often all at once—can leave caregivers exhausted, overwhelmed, and silently burning out. In this episode of the Mindful Mama Podcast, Hunter Clarke-Fields and clinical psychologist Dr. Christopher Willard explore the unique emotional and nervous-system challenges of the sandwich generation. You'll learn why caregiver burnout isn't a personal failure, how chronic stress impacts patience and joy, and what actually helps when life feels nonstop. Why the sandwich generation experiences chronic emotional overload The biology behind caregiver burnout and constant stress Why “work–life balance” doesn't work—and what does Simple mindfulness tools you can use in real life How to set boundaries without guilt Why repair matters more than perfection in caregiving relationships This compassionate conversation offers relief, validation, and practical support for parents and caregivers stretched in every direction. Plus: Learn about The Mindful Middle, a short-term live group coaching experience designed to support caregivers in the thick of it. You are not failing—you are carrying a lot. Support isn't a luxury.

Sean Fargo guides a grounded mindfulness meditation and explores how gentle awareness helps us return from rumination, meet difficult emotions, and carry presence into daily life. If your mind keeps sprinting ahead or replaying the past, this conversation offers a practical way home. We open with a gentle guided practice to help you feel the room, find your seat, and meet your breath without force, then expand into a clear map of how mindfulness works—and how it differs from concentration and visualization. The aim isn't to chase calm; it's to contact what's true right now with honesty, softness, and a touch of courage.We break down the core moves that make mindfulness usable in daily life: noticing when you've slipped into rumination, shifting attention to physical anchors like feet, hands, and breath, and using simple self-soothing gestures to remind the nervous system that it's safe to settle. You'll hear why numbing with food, alcohol, or screens feels tempting and how it quietly shrinks awareness. Instead, we practice naming unpleasantness without judgment and letting acceptance open the door to movement, choice, and care. Along the way, we talk posture, micro-movements, and the subtle cues that reveal where you're bracing and where you can soften.Join us, practice with us, and if this resonated, subscribe, share it with a friend who could use a mindful reset, and leave a quick review so more people can find the show.
