I talk a lot about Meditation. I was a meditation teacher for five years and had been meditating regularly since 2015. It really, really changed my life in so many ways!
During my bodybuilding days, I had really bad panic attacks, to the point that my doctor gave me prescription drugs for my anxiety. But I didn’t need it. What I needed to do was to change my lifestyle and get into a healthy regimen again.
My eyes opened to mindfulness and meditation.
Today, we talk about the why and how it changed my life, the science behind it – why meditation works and heals, why you should be doing it, and how to actually do it.
- What is mindfulness? It’s getting you out of autopilot and getting you in the present moment. [3:30]
- Your perception is everything: it creates your reality. My life is phenomenal and fantastic because I chose to think that way. I chose to let go and surrender and not live in the past. [8:00]
- Mindfulness vs Meditation: what’s the difference? [10:00]
- The science of meditation and its proven benefits. [18:45]
- When we are stuck and blocked, we do not live abundant lives; we do not attract and manifest our dreams. [24:16]
- Don’t get aggravated with yourself and think that you’re failing at meditation because your mind goes on its own little tangent. Instead, practice bringing awareness to and stopping the thought and coming back to being present. [27:07]
- You will attract the same energy and frequency that you put out. [33:57]
Meditation is the art of bringing your mind back to the present moment. It’s important to do meditations that resonate with you.
I hope this helped shed some light on meditation. This is just the surface.
It is my duty and my mission to serve the community, to serve all of you.
