Do you feel like you just can’t meditate no matter what you do? Maybe you’ve been told you have a monkey mind that won’t calm down. Or it feels impossible to sit still and be present with your breath and thoughts. 

 

In this conversation with luminary Light Watkins, we talk all about how to find peace, calm, and serenity within your mind, and yes, through the proven power of meditation. Light shares a wealth of wisdom and teaching about how to change the way you view your mind, body and spirit, especially as it relates to meditation and finding true and lasting inner peace.

 

Meet Light Watkins

Key Takeaways:

  • Take hope of faith.
  • Give what you want to receive.
  • We’ve told ourselves we can’t meditate, but this isn’t true. Start by sitting comfortably and making friends with your thoughts. Think of your mind as an ally.
  • Don’t let your fear of other opinions stop you from becoming your authentic self, i.e., your ‘You-est You.’
  • Investigating your internal emotional baggage is always the root cause of where, in doing more profound work, you’ll find your inner zen, peace, and serenity
  • To travel light, stop carrying around the past. The richest information about tomorrow is in today’s moment.
