Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey everyone, Jake Carter here, welcome back to find your
why again, your daily dose of inspiration to help you
navigate this crazy thing called life. You know that feeling
when your to do list is longer than a CBS
for seat, deadlines are looming like hungry wolves, and your
brain feels like it's buzzing with the energy of a
thousand caffeinated bees. Yeah, me too. That's why today we're

(00:21):
diving into something super powerful, a quick five minute meditation
practice that can seriously help chill you out and bring
back the calm. Stress is like that annoying guest who
overstays their welcome. You need to set boundaries, kick them
to the curb, and reclaim your piece. And trust me,
this isn't about becoming some zen masters sitting on a mountaintop,
although wouldn't that be nice. This is about finding a

(00:44):
few minutes in your day to just breathe. Here are
five key takeaways from today's mini meditation session that you
can weave into your daily life. One silence is golden.
Ever noticed how much chatter goes on in your head, thoughts, worries, plans.
It's like a NonStop radio state playing in the background.
Meditation isn't about emptying your mind completely that's a myth,

(01:06):
but more about gently guiding your attention away from those
incessant thoughts and towards something else. Your breath a soothing sound,
or even just a feeling of your body against the chair. Two.
Your breath is your anchor. Your breath is this amazing
tool that connects you to the present moment. Each inhale,
each exhale, it's a little reminder that you're alive, right here,

(01:26):
right now. Focus on the sensation of your breath entering
and leaving your body. Feel the air moving through your nostrils,
expanding your chest, softening your belly. It's like hitting the
reset button on your nervous system. Three. Find your zen zone.
There are tons of ways to meditate. Some people love
guided meditations with calming voices. Others prefer complete silence. Experiment

(01:49):
and find what works best for you. You can even
try meditating while walking doing chores. Sneaking mindfulness into everyday
activities is a superpower. Four. Be kind to yourself. Meditation
isn't about being perfect. Your mind will wander. That's totally normal.
Just gently acknowledge those wandering thoughts and bring your focus
back to your breath. Think of it like training a puppy.

(02:11):
Some days they listen better than others. Five The little
things add up. You don't need hours of meditation to
reap the benefits. Even just a few minutes a day
can make a huge difference. It's like those tiny water
droplets that eventually carve out canyons. Consistency is key. Okay,
let me paint you a picture. Imagine you're stuck in
traffic on your way home from work. The cars are

(02:33):
bumper to bumper, the sun is beating down, and everyone's
driving like they just discovered speed limits were optional. You
feel the familiar nod of tension forming in your shoulders,
that saya escaping your lips. It's a recipe for a
stressful evening. But wait, remember our little five minute meditation trick.
Take a deep breath in through your nose, hold it
for a few seconds, and exhale slowly through your mouth.

(02:56):
Feel your chest rise and fall with each breath. Notice
the sense of your hands gripping the steering wheel, the
warmth of the sun on your skin, even the sounds
around you, the honking horns, the rumble of engines, the
chirping of birds. Yes, sometimes there are still those little guys.
You might not magically teleport to a beach resort, but
bringing your awareness back to the present moment can shift

(03:18):
your perspective. You're less reactive to the chaos and more
able to navigate it with a sense of calm. So
remember you have the power to choose how you react
to stress. This isn't about ignoring the challenges in life.
It's about equipping yourself with tools to handle them with
grace and resilience. Take a few minutes today to practice
this five minute meditation and as always, keep finding your why.

(03:41):

drop a comment below or hit me up on social media,
and remember even small steps lead to big changes. Keep
it real, keep it positive, and keep finding your why.
