In this episode we interview our close friend Doug, an experienced meditation practitioner and teacher. We delve into the profound benefits of meditation, sharing personal stories and insights on how meditation has helped us handle stress, improve interpersonal relationships, and discover our authentic selves. Doug discusses his journey from curiosity to becoming a certified meditation instructor, his experiences with silent retreats, and his daily meditation practice. We also offer practical advice for beginners and emphasize the importance of exploring meditation without expectations. This episode provides a comprehensive look into the deep and lasting impact meditation can have on one’s life.
