Whole Again: A Fresh Approach to Healing, Growth & Resilience After Physical Trauma Through Kintsugi Mindfulness

#144 | A Micro-Meditation Practice To Shift Your Focus For Resilience and Transformation


Listen Later

Perspective matters and we generally go where our eyes go. This week's Friday Meditation is inspired by my TEDx talk and it's all about what we are paying attention to and where are we looking. 

Join us as we explore the power of mindset and learn how it can change our relationship with stress, improve our sleep, and infuse mindfulness into our everyday moments. And remember, our invitation extends beyond this episode – our app, Pause, Breathe, Reflect, offers additional practices like the one shared today, and you can always join our live practices throughout the week.


Now, you can “Pay What You Can” for your first year. Yes, for as little as $1, you can become a member of our like-hearted community. You can find the Pause Breathe Reflect app in Apple’s App Store or over at Google Play.


Take a moment to pause, breathe, and reflect with us as we embark on this journey of self-discovery and mindful living. And as we prepare for the weekend ahead, may we all create ripples of positivity and meaning in the world. Stay tuned for another inspiring story of connection on Tuesday’s episode of the Kintsugi Podcast.

Let's celebrate our scars as golden symbols of resilience and strength. 


My name is Michael I help people prevent a bad moment from turning into a bad day and heal, growth and develop more resilience. 


I'm not a doctor or therapist. But I have been through the “ringer” as they say. I was involved in a cycling accident that my trauma team doesn’t know how I survived. Along the way, I’ve tried it all to heal and in my podcast, I share what I’ve learn in hopes that something might help you. Plus, I want to create a connection with you so you’re not alone in your journey. You’ve got this!
