In today’s fast-paced world, we are constantly bombarded by so many things that distract us from being in the present moment. With so much that we can access within our fingertips, whether it’s social media, our computers, or the news, it can be really tough to tune into ourselves.  Truthfully, it can sometimes feel better to distract ourselves than to really dig deep to understand how and why we feel the ways that we do. It’s time that we all learned how to be a bit more mindful. 

Mindfulness is so much more than meditation. It can help us manage our stress, fears, and anxieties. While we often think that we’re too busy to practice mindfulness, we’re not. There are various strategies that can be used throughout our busy days. Our guest today, Josephine Atluri is here to show us how. Josephine is an expert in meditation and mindfulness helping thousands of people overcome adversity to find joy. She is a graduate of the University of Chicago, and coupled her consulting background with her passion for Total Wellness to become certified as a meditation coach and teach corporate mindfulness. Plus, her experience creating her modern day family of seven children via in vitro fertilization, internal adoption and surrogacy inspires her work as a highly sought after fertility and parenting mindfulness coach. 

In this episode we discuss:

What it means to be mindful.

The difference between mindfulness and meditation.

Benefits one can see when using mindfulness or meditation as a practice. 

How you can fit 10 minutes of meditation into your day.

Three tips to help you sit in meditation when you feel like you’re doing it wrong.
