So these are some questions that I picked out of a group of questions that I got through social media and some in my email. And they sort of reflect a greater kind of vibe of questions. So I may be picking if I didn’t pick your question. Hopefully, I’m answering it with one of the other questions. And if not, then I’ll get to it next time. So I do keep sort of a running list. So we’ll have some more for next time. So all right, so let’s, let’s just get into it. Because these are some good juicy ones. I feel like these are some good juicy ones. All right. So the first one is actually pretty simple. And I really liked it. Because I think this is something that comes up a lot with people. And I hear it a lot in my one on one coaching clients, too. So the question is, I hate to meditate. And I see all the benefits. And I see you posting about the intuition that you’re hearing when you meditate. So how can I enjoy it more? So my question is, how can I enjoy it more? So, you know, this is, so don’t meditate. That’s my answer is don’t meditate. don’t meditate. It’s if it if it is not, you know, I talk a lot on the show about alignment and feeling like you’re in a space of happiness and joy, and that is the best place to be able to move forward, right? That is the best place to be able to take action on things. But if you are pushing, if you’re deciding, I’ve got to meditate, anytime you hear the word should I should meditate, I should work out, I should eat better. Don’t do it. So maybe your workout has to be something different. Maybe your food has to be a different kind of food, so that you’re not shooting on it. And maybe your meditation has to be a different kind of mindfulness activity. So meditation is not the only way to listen to your intuition. It’s not the only way to calm your mind. It’s not the only way to do all these things. And so sometimes I think that in meditation, we, when we think about meditation, we think this has to be like a structured time where I’m sitting on a cushion. And I’m sitting upright, you know, many of the guided meditations will say, like, sit upright, like I don’t sit up, right, I lay down, because that’s what I’m comfortable. That’s when I can most leave my body and my senses. For me, sitting upright, does not work if I’m doing like an intense meditation. So maybe having this structured meditation isn’t for you, maybe there’s a different kind of meditation, you could try, maybe you could try being in a different position, you could try a guided meditation, you could buy, you could try a hypnotic NLP based meditation, maybe that would feel different for for you. But also, maybe you just shut off the TV, and you shut off the radio. And when you’re prepping dinner, you’re just in the moment, maybe you’re just chopping, like that can be a meditative activity.
