Understanding Meditation with that Meditation Guy

I've been increasingly interested in the topic of meditation over the past year and have been waiting for the right guest to kickstart the conversation. Recently, I came across Jimmy Wightman, also known as That Meditation Guy on Instagram. Based in the UK, he is a well-respected meditation and mindfulness teacher. I've been following Jimmy's work for quite some time, and I believe the time is right to have him as a guest on the podcast.Episode Highlights:What is the goal of meditation and why should someone meditate?Setting yourself up for success in meditationMindfulness and meditation: what comes first?Dealing with rough moments in meditationWhat type of meditation to start withStages of attentionDo you meditate for joy or happiness?How much time is needed to cultivate a steady meditation practice?Grief and trauma in meditationLearning meditation through apps and videos versus going to a teacherHow does someone choose their mantra?Join our mailing listFind all the resources mentioned in this episodeConnect with us on Instagram
