Why Meditation is the Best Gift You Can Give Yourself

I’m sharing a guest post today from my Joyful Eating, Nourished Life program co-author and fellow Registered Dietitian Alex Caspero on why meditation is the best gift you can give yourself. I began my own meditation journey about 6 months ago after deciding I needed something to manage the endless to do list that was life. While I don’t successfully practice every single day, I aim to most days, and it has honestly made a big difference in my stress and anxiety levels. I know it sounds silly, but before you close out this post and say meditation isn’t for you, give this post about the health benefits of meditation a read.

Why Meditation is the Best Gift You Can Give Yourself

Don’t hesitate, meditate! My first yoga teacher had that phrase as a bumper sticker on her car, and while it still makes me chuckle now as much as it did then, I now have a much deeper appreciation for the intention behind those words.

Seriously, though: want to change your life? Try meditation. Whoa! Is that a bit too hyperbol…

What do you think?
