If meditation has ever felt like a chore, or worse, like it’s not working, this episode is for you.

We’re unpacking the most common (and least questioned) ideas about how meditation is supposed to look. From posture to focus to breath control, many of the well-meaning tips we’ve picked up might actually be getting in the way of the experience we’re after.

You’ll hear why so many of us struggle to enjoy the practice, even when we’re “doing everything right,” and what you can shift internally to make meditation feel easier, more natural, and even delightful.

Whether you’ve tried meditation and given up, or you’re just tired of fighting your own mind, this episode offers a refreshing perspective that could change your relationship with the practice altogether.
