“Meditation isn’t about perfection. It’s about showing up, even if it’s just for a moment.” - Eudie Dorsett Johnson

This episode is all about redefining meditation—not as something intimidating or time-consuming, but as a powerful, accessible tool for everyday life. I loved discovering the science behind why meditation truly is like medication, helping us shift from stress mode into a state of healing and renewal.

We often convince ourselves that we don’t have time for self-care, but in reality, meditation can be as simple as a few mindful breaths. It’s not about achieving a perfect state of calm; it’s about making a habit of pausing, even in the busiest moments.

Meditation is something we can integrate into our routines, not just something we do in isolation. Whether it’s while making coffee, taking a work break, or even listening to this podcast, every small moment of mindfulness adds up. I hope this episode inspires you to embrace meditation as a daily act of self-care.
