Listen "Meditation, life’s milestones & finding your purpose with Maude Hirst"
Episode Synopsis
For this week’s slice of wellbeing, we speak to Maude Hirst, who has transition from a high flying acting career into unlocking the power of breathwork and meditation to soothe anxiety.
74% of adults in the UK are suffering with some form of anxiety, so what better way to start this week’s episode than with a short meditation led by Maude herself? If you think you don’t have the time for meditation, you’re probably someone who needs it the most, so we’ve absolutely got you covered.
Do you find it hard to sit still with your eyes closed? Join the club! Body scans? Visual? Yoga Nidra? There’s so many types of meditation. Where do you start?! Maude shares some tips and advice on finding the right type and style of meditation for you and your life. Hint: it can be different for each of us.
In this episode, we also cover how feeling the societal pressures to hit certain milestones in life can define who we are, Vipasana, breath work and how changing your breath can change how you feel. We discuss the difference between mindfulness and meditation and delve into Maude’s journey from the acting world to the world of meditation and everything in between.
By the end of this episode you’ll have tools and techniques that you can turn to when you feel stressed, anxious or overwhelmed, you’ll know the difference between mindfulness and meditation and you’ll have a strong starting point for your meditation practice.
