040: Mindfulness for Modern Families

040: Mindfulness for Modern Families

On this episode of the Sustainable Minimalists podcast we discuss the What, Why + How of mindfulness. We offer concrete meditation tips for modern families, too.

“As I began meditating + getting more grounded, I wasn’t reacting as much to the kids’ upsets. I was being a bit more present for their questions + concerns, too.”

If we’ve heard it once, we’ve heard it a thousand times: 

When it comes to intentional living, adopting a mindfulness practice is the singlemost powerful habit we can foster.

This week, I’m thrilled to offer two unique perspectives on the link between intention + mindfulness:

– First, Buddhist + meditation expert Kim Fuller. Kim reveals the details about what exactly mindfulness is + why it’s so darn important. 

– Second, Tara Dubiel. Tara’s a busy mom who’s passionate about simplifying parenthood. I ask Tara the practical questions, like How. On. Earth. overstretched parents can find the time to get incrementally mindful. 

I can’t wait for you to meet Kim + Tara. Enjoy!

Beyond the Beige

We’ve all seen the images. The stark white rooms, the single designer chair, the perfectly curated capsule wardrobe. We’re told that if we just clear the clutter, we’ll find peace. 

But if we’re not careful, the minimalist aesthetic can become just another thing to buy, another thing to consume. 

On today’s show, Melora Johnson deconstructs the modern minimalist movement so that each of us can move from the clutter-free, beige-everything  minimalist aesthetic to a deeper, more sustainable practice rooted in intentionality.

Here’s a preview:
