Meditation is a spiritual practice by nature. Even if you are meditating purely for the health or secular benefits, a regular practice is a lovely opportunity for you to deepen your spiritual practice. I have found that in teaching folks to meditate, when the practice means a little something, it is easier to meditate, more fun to meditate and brings way more benefits to your life. It doesn’t have to be a certain tradition. If you can be a bit creative and honor your true self, you can make meditation mean more than just an excellent brain workout or one more healthy habit to complete each day. This is my last episode for this season! I will see you in March! Keep meditating and hit me up any time. I love you!
In this episode we will learn:
~How to make meditation mean something more than a healthy habit
~How meditation can deepen your spiritual practice even if you don’t feel very spiritual at all
~Ham Sah Meditation

Quotes: “I’m not telling you what to believe, I’m telling you that if you believe something, bring it to your cushion. Because it is going to make your practice so much more fulfilling and your benefits are going to be vast.” -Cheri Augustine Flake, LCSW

10% Happier by Dan Harris https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18505796-10-happier?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=6BWmo8Z1RI&rank=1 (After recording this episode, I did look into Dan Harris and it seems that since writing this book, he too has clearly brought spirituality into his practice. I suspect he is now WAY MORE than 10% happier!)
