Starting the day on a positive note can be life-changing, especially for young adults. Megan and I discuss the concept of incorporating a mindfulness class as the first period in schools and how it can help students cultivate positive mindsets and attitudes. Megan also shares her personal practices, such as breathwork, journaling, and affirmations, which have been instrumental in her ongoing mental health journey.

We also delve into the fascinating topic of intuition and mindfulness in education, and how young people can be taught to listen to their inner guidance. Megan shares her insights on distinguishing between intuition and ego, and the significance of support groups for young men facing mental health challenges. Lastly, we emphasize the power of open communication and fostering meaningful conversations with our children. Join us in this inspiring conversation with Megan Gallagher and learn how we can create a more mentally aware and empathetic society.
