EP1: Three misconceptions about meditation

The Traveling Temple

In this episode, Joshua addresses three common misconceptions about meditation:

1: I can’t meditate because I can’t quiet my mind

Joshua assures us that quieting the mind is more of an advanced form of meditation, not something that beginners should expect to achieve. He recommends approaching meditation with an open mind and focusing on the breath instead.

2: Meditation goes against my religion

While meditation is associated with Buddhism and Hinduism, it has numerous scientifically proven benefits and is something everyone can practice, no matter their religious beliefs.

3: I’m not sure which is the “right way” to meditate

There are so many meditation techniques; the key is to find what works for you.

Remember: Consistency is key! Find a meditation practice you enjoy and stick with it to experience the many benefits it offers.
