In this week’s podcast, my special guest is Laura Coleman. Laura is a meditation and mindfulness coach and the founder of BE Modern Meditation. A meditation and mindfulness platform designed to help you take small, sustainable steps to a healthier and calmer mind.

She believes that no matter what your life looks like, you can build a life that's truly rich and meaningful. She helps women to transform how they think, feel, and show up so they can overcome challenges and thrive using a potent combination of meditation, mindfulness. cognitive behavioral, hypnotherapy and self-compassion. She will also be sharing a short meditation for listeners to experience.

Here are the highlights:

• (02:39) Essentially all you are doing is creating a way of paying attention.
• (05:40) You're training your mind, you're building that capacity.
• (14:42) We are mindless, we are just going on autopilot through our lives.
• (19:14) It's not that I'm not a meditator anymore, it's just I'm not meditating right now.
• (21:05) You don't need a special cushion in a special spot.
• (23:19) Weave it into your life whenever you can.
• (37:10) When your brain detects that you're not doing something, it's going to pop up some thoughts.
• (36:13) You can sit down at your desk and just spend a moment.
• (46:07) I've developed a framework called the Mindful Mindset.
• (47:35) You really helped me through a really difficult time.
