22. How to Practice Realistic and Meaningful Meditation to Manage the Everyday Stressors of Life with Molly Woodhull

Many of us are feeling overwhelmed, stressed and have a sense of heaviness with everything that is going on in the world. And if you can find a way to stop living a life of fight or flight mode then you will be able to change the way your mind deals with adversity and better manage the everyday stressors of life. But you’ve adopted this go-go-go mindset to constantly keep going, to keep doing more, to do things faster that you’ve lost yourself in all this overwhelm and pressure forgetting how to truly slow down. You’re living your life in absolute stress!

Today on Dream Big, Live Slow, my guest Molly Woodhull is an expert when it comes to providing realistic and meaningful ways to manage everyday stressors through powerful mindfulness and meditation techniques. We chat about compassion-based meditation tools you can use to cultivate productivity and help you feel energized, micro meditation practices you can incorporate into your days that don't involve sitting on a cushion for 20 minutes each morning and focusing on simple, actionable mindfulness tools that actually work in your busy schedule.
