This is the second episode of The Mindful Mindset. In this episode, I speak about meditating, how yoga influenced my practice and how I got to here. More, I speak about guided meditations, how they help you in the beginning but also how they can hurt your practice. I share some videos on Youtube you can find and apps you can use for guided meditations. We end this episode with an 8-minute meditation by yours truly.
