How to Meditate with a Busy Mind

Thrive with Nicole

"I Just Can't Meditate" - Every New Meditator
Have you ever said “I just can’t meditate, my mind won’t stop”?
Don’t worry I’ve got your back, so many of my clients have said this to me, when I set them homework of meditating every day. The look of fear on their face is priceless, like I have asked them to give me their first born child. Don’t worry I will never ask for your first born child, I have two teenagers and my hands are already full, with as much teenage attitude as I can take. You lay down, close your eyes and all of a sudden your mind is racing with thoughts like:

• I haven’t done the washing…
• the ironing piling up on the back of the couch,
• Hang on a second, did I leave the stove on, oh no it’s okay I haven’t cooked dinner yet…
• Oh man I really should be cooking dinner, instead of lying here trying to meditate,
• Geez I am so bad at this meditating thing, I can’t even stop thinking.

Sound familiar?
In this episode:

• My personal experience with traditional meditation
• Something you do that you may not realise is meditation
• My shift from trying to stop your thoughts to meditate
• A quick exercise / homework
