Practice: Miracle of the Breath and Body Meditation with Dr. Elise Bialylew

This special companion episode accompanies a conversation with Dr. Elise Bialylew, a psychiatrist, mindfulness and meditation teacher, and the founder of Mindful in May. Give that episode a whirl first before coming back here and practicing this beautiful companion practice.

Our conversation is FILLED with wonderful, practical, realistic advice so that everybody can walk away with the resources they need to begin exploring mindfulness and meditation. Today.

How do I know? Because they’ve been working for me.

When I recorded this episode, I had fallen off the meditation bandwagon. I used to have a regular practice, but life had gotten in the way and I’d stopped. I was feeling disappointed in myself and struggling to integrate it back into my everyday life, trying little things and then stopping again.

So I asked Dr. Bialylew every question I could think about - that you’ve probably thought about too - on how I can create a daily habit around mindfulness and meditation. She has given so many resources to us today, alongside the scientific evidence that supports it, so that everybody who listens can try a number of things to practice mindfulness and meditation.

Our conversation includes:

Tips and tools for enhancing your wellbeing, balance & joy through mindfulnessHow to transform your stress and worryWhat the difference is between meditation and mindfulness, and how you can try bothHow mindfulness changes the brain for the betterWhat do to when you’re too busy to meditateResources that you can try for free today

All of this to say that this is a great conversation and you should absolutely listen to it. And then share it with your partner, your friends, your mum. Let’s help everybody transform their minds and lives. And ps: I’m proud to say that I’ve meditated for the last eight days back-to-back following this conversation. I hope it offers it to you too. Enjoy!
