227. The Power of Practicing Mindfulness

May 03, 2024

How are your stress levels these days?


About 80% of Americans say they feel some degree of stress in their daily lives.


Of course, some feel stress more often than others, but the fact is, we are a stressed-out society.


Not dealing with stress can have all kinds of health and wellness implications including weight gain, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, depression, and a host of other issues.


Having a daily stress management practice is imperative if you want to be a healthy happy human.


And one of the most powerful ways to manage stress is to practice mindfulness.


So in this episode, I explain the power of practicing mindfulness and why it might be the best gift you can ever give yourself.
