Alive With Purpose

In this episode I am joined by my favourite meditation teacher Jeff Carreira. His teachings and his friendship have made a positive impact on my life and inspired me to think about my own life's purpose more deeply. In this first part of our conversation, Jeff talks about his unique approach to meditation that makes it powerful for beginners and seasoned practitioners alike. We also discuss how practicing "no problem" can create a huge shift off the meditation cushion during the ups and downs of life (even when your toddler is having a tantrum at the store).

I wasn't planning to record this podcast, but I unrolled my yoga mat this morning and was hit with a long list of things I "should" being doing instead of self-care. I know you already know self-care is good for you but if you find it hard to follow through on things that enhance your health and well-being, this episode is for you.   Get in touch with me at: https://www.revitalizeyourrelationship.com/podcast
