Shut Up and Sit

Ep. 36 - Why Mindfulness?


Listen Later

This episode will change your life and the way you think about mindfulness. In this episode of Shut Up and Sit, Yedda welcomes Rachel, Executive Director of The Inner Work Center, to shut up and sit down with her to answer the question: Why mindfulness? Rachel speaks on her journey with mindfulness, what it was like to start working for a mindfulness-based startup, and how she incorporates mindfulness into a non-profit business. 

Together, they shed light on how mindfulness can impact the diversity, equity, and inclusion movement and what makes The Inner Work Center one of the best places in Richmond to practice mindfulness and meditation. 

“It really was such a tremendous difference in the way that I looked at life, the way that I treated myself, the way that I treated others, I was triggered less often and I found forgiveness, which was a huge thing for me.” - Rachel

Mindfulness gives you the gift of being who you are without judgement. Whether you’re a business owner, executive, entrepreneur, or team member, you can be a leader that leads from an overflow of compassion and love. Listen in to learn how you can get involved with the Inner Work community and learn more about the mindfulness programs and classes they offer.

“Mindfulness doesn’t say you’ve got to stop being who you are, it says you get to fully love and embrace who you are and when you do that, you can show up and give permission to other people to be who they are.” - Yedda
