47 min - Meditative journey to inner strength
Todays is special as it is the last episode of season 2 of the Happy Type One Podcast. I cannot believe, we already shared 20 episodes together! Thanks to all of you for being part of this journey, meeting those beautiful guests, getting to know them, learning and thriving together as a whole to smile and laugh when times are tough living with a chronic illness. I want you to know, you are all a gift to this world and I love you very much!
As an anniversary gift, I teamed up with my yoga instructor Clizia Dosanjh. As a new mother, she managed to take the time, to write and record a meditation for us to discover ourselves, establish peaceful thoughts and create a general state of well being. I practise meditation daily, as it truly helps me to reduce my stress, calm down and ground myself. Which then again, helps with mental challenges and BG levels.
I see you again for season 3 after a 2 weeks break. The new season will have fascinating guests from Mexico, the UK, Australia and all around the world talking about eating disorders, mental health, the ketogenic diet, the power of community and the strength to keep going after loosing a professional football career due to hypoglycaemia.
