You feel it, don’t you. Your mind is restless, unsettled, and you might be a bit confused and lost in your thoughts. This is common, friends, and is what is known as your monkey mind. The good news is there are ways you can quiet your mind.

In today’s episode, host Jason Ramsden shares what it  means to have a Monkey Mind and how a mindfulness practice, including meditation, can help you loosen the grip your mind has on your life.
