What does meditation have to do with weight loss? Anything?
I say with strong conviction: a lot!
First and foremost, meditation decreases cortisol levels. Chronically elevated cortisol levels impair decision making, increase hunger, increase cravings, impair sleep and blunt insulin responsiveness.

If you've ever had those frustrations or if you've wondered about meditation, you will want to hear this episode!
