In this episode, Adam and Lisa Erickson discuss:

  • Yin and Yang Energies
  • The art and science of meditation
  • Busy-mind and drowsy-mind
  • Mindfulness meditation, meditation as a tool for healing, and other techniques for improving your meditation habit

Key Takeaways:

  • Find a balance between yin and yang - don’t fall into either extremes.
  • Meditation means differently for different people. Some see it as a way to manage stress, some see it as a path to healing, and others see it as a spiritual practice or all of that and more.
  • For busy-mind people, it might be helpful to elongate your exhale when meditating.
  • Meditation can be done anywhere and can be done in multiple ways.

"Meditation… is a little bit like exercise… it’s going to benefit you’re body whether you enjoy or you didn’t. I certainly hope that everyone enjoys their meditation, but you shouldn’t quit if you don’t enjoy it every day because it still has benefits." — Lisa Erickson
