Meditation & Taking Time For Ourselves with Jamie Gines
Listen in as Jamie and I explore the benefits of meditation. Bonus: Jamie will take us through a meditation session at the end. Be sure and find a quiet place where you will have minimal restrictions for about 15-20 minutes (see the prep notes at the bottom). About Jamie Gines: Jamie grew up in Mesa, Arizona. She attended college at Brigham Young University dancing on BYU‘s Ballroom Company and graduating with a degree in Business Entrepreneurship. She now lives in Bountiful, Utah with her husband and four children. She enjoys meditation, yoga, hiking, cooking, eating good food and being with her family. She teaches meditation and loves helping others learn to connect with mind and body to promote wellness and health. She can be found on Instagram @risemeditate To learn more visit BlondeRunner.com Preparing for meditation:
> 1. Body-Find a quiet spot. Help your body feel fully supported by finding a position that is comfortable for you. Lying down or sitting are both great. You can use pillows or blankets to help yourself get comfortable.
2. Mind-Give your mind permission to set aside to-do lists, worries, and stresses in your life. There is nothing you need to “achieve” in meditation, you are simply practicing being in the present and becoming aware of your mind and body without judgement.
3. Breath-Use the breath to refocus on the present moment when you get distracted. Deep breaths, especially long exhales will help your brain to slow down. Music:
