#38: Mindful Connections

A Keen Mind | Stress Reduction | Mindfulness | Meditation

This episode explores how you can use mindfulness to make more meaningful connections with yourself and others. We look at the impact and prevalence of loneliness in our society and practical steps that we can take in order to connect with one another. We look at the some of the challenges that people may face when they are managing depression or mental illness and the importance of listening and supporting each other. Following the talk there is a guided meditation with a focus on gratitude. Please be sure to tune in to WBTV’s Dedrick Russell for his next Community Conversation: A Healthy Mind, Body & Soul - It airs on Oct. 24th from 7-8PM and can be viewed live at wbtv.com/live - My portion of the interview explores how mindfulness and meditation help rewire the brain for better health and well-being. Dedrick was able to capture a special interview with Oprah who has been a huge help in increasing awareness about mental illness and the importance of taking better care of our health and well-being.
