Making Mindfulness Work - The Corona Chronicles with Tonya Nelson
1h 0m · PublishedIn this episode, I chat with my sister-in-law, Tonya, about balancing work and self care while working from home. Tonya talks about how her meditation practice helps her gain creative freedom, clarity and peace that makes her more effective at work. Meditation gave her a wellness outlet that doesn’t require her to leave her home - a major key in the COVID craziness we are all dealing with.
We chat about analysis paralysis, dealing with uncertainty, manifestations of stress in our physical bodies, chakras, pranayama, dealing with frustrations at work and meditation as a healing tool that leads to less need for substances and medications. We end with a 5 minute guided body scan that you can use at work to reset and refocus.
