A few months back, I had the pleasure of speaking with Ariel Garten, mindfulness expert, and Founder of the company Muse. Muse makes a brain-sensing headband that helps people meditate more effectively.\xa0

Through my connection with Ariel, I was able to get an interview with this week\u2019s guest. Patricia Karpas is a former media executive, the Head of Content for Muse, and the founder of Meditation Studio, a 5-star meditation app. She\u2019s with us this week to help us\xa0understand the power of mindfulness during uncertain times like these and, more importantly, to help us get started.\xa0\xa0

During this episode we talk about:\xa0

  • What mindfulness means in these uncertain times\xa0
  • The benefits of meditation\xa0both\xa0now\xa0and\xa0in\xa0our\xa0normal\xa0lives\xa0
  • How your breath serves as an anchor in times of panic and chaos\xa0
  • The impact of meditation on\xa0the way your brain responds to threats\xa0
  • The importance of a gratitude practice\xa0

We also highlight\xa0a number of\xa0resources for\xa0you:\xa0

I hope this episode serves as an actionable tool for you to cultivate a practice that will benefit you now and well into the future.\xa0Please share this with someone else who might benefit.
