The Benefits of a Mindfulness Practice

Jay Rush, Certified Life Coach Season 1 Episode 8

Ever get the feeling like you are constantly reacting to the events of the day or not really in control? In this episode, Jay discusses the importance of incorporating a mindfulness or meditation practice in to your daily routine. Some of the benefits include a feeling of being grounded and gratitude, the ability to recognize thoughts that are dominating our bandwidth or sending us down a negative spiral and cardiovascular health as we learn to lower our blood pressure and control our breathing. For you Alphas out there, here's the kicker: a mindfulness practice allows you to act on good information in a responsive manner, not just react out of impulse. This is one tool in the journey to self-mastery.

Find a seat. Find an empty room. Set a timer for 5 minutes. See what happens. Pay attention to your thoughts. Rinse and repeat. Daily.
