In this episode of the Lucious Lyran podcast, host Lucious Lyran explores the topic of mental health and the powerful healing that can come from spiritual practices, self-love, and nurturing our bodies. He begins by discussing the importance of recognizing mental health as more than just the absence of mental illness, but as a state of well-being where we can cope with the stresses of life and contribute to our community. Lucious shares his personal experience of growing up in a household where mental health was not discussed and the stigma surrounding it. He emphasizes the need to acknowledge that it's okay to not be okay and that healing begins with this awareness.


Lucious then delves into the role of meditation in healing mental health issues. He highlights the benefits of meditation, including stress reduction, improved concentration, and even positive changes in the brain's structure. He recommends starting with just five minutes a day and gradually increasing the practice. Lucious also mentions his own experience with guided Kundalini meditation and suggests exploring guided chakra meditations as a starting point for beginners.


The episode concludes with a discussion on cultivating self-love for mental wellness. Lucious emphasizes the importance of changing the narrative from self-criticism to self-compassion. He encourages listeners to start their day with affirmations that celebrate their strengths, embrace self-care routines, and set boundaries to protect their energy. Lucious emphasizes that self-love is not selfish, but rather the foundation for building mental resilience.
