  • SOS stress meditation was the WORST

    Genuinely the worst meditation i’ve ever done. Absolutely no relaxation principles and the long pauses without any sound or real prompt made me wonder several times if i had accidentally paused it, thus taking me out of the space. Not only that, but the majority of the meditation focuses on the stress itself and reliving the negative emotion yet gives no real guide to how to release those feelings meaningfully, instead he suggests to ‘replace bad feelings with kindness and acceptance’ as someone... more

  • Good content, not enough meditation

    I find that there is way too much talking *about* meditation and not enough *doing* it in this podcast. I find that after the barrage of words, I still need to go meditate! The content is great, after the 3-4 minute intro that is repeated each episode, but it’s not spacious enough for me.
