In Episode 61 of Doctor’s Wealth and Wellness, titled "Mindfulness Practices for High-Pressure Decisions," host Norm Wright, a Certified Financial Planner, equips physicians with three mindfulness tools to enhance clarity and reduce stress during high-stakes financial and professional decisions, building on Episode 57’s resilience strategies and Episode 59’s focus on relationships. With a 2025 Lancet study showing 10 minutes of daily mindfulness boosts decision-making clarity by 15% in high-stress roles, Norm introduces guided meditation (cutting anxiety by 12% per a 2025 JAMA study, as Dr. Maria used to reframe a tax hit), the 4-7-8 breathing technique (helping Dr. Ali save $5,000 in loan negotiations), and mindful pauses (preserving $15,000 for Dr. Rachel by avoiding impulsive investment moves). Celebrating over 50 episodes, this episode offers actionable steps—like using a meditation app, practicing breathing exercises, or pausing before financial tasks—to help doctors stay sharp and thrive amid pressures like investments (Episode 52) or retirement planning (Episode 60). Examples in this episode are hypothetical and not representative of a specific individual.
