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!

Nature As Medicine

Are we treating the symptoms of modern life while simultaneously ignoring our habitat?

The average American now spends 93% of their life indoors. But humans evolved for millennia alongside the natural world, and research suggests that our indoor lifestyle is disrupting our sleep, focus and long-term health.

You don’t need a gym membership or expensive workout gear to get your health back on track. On today’s show, Dr. John La Puma argues that all you need is a 17-minute dose of nature, every single day.

Here’s a preview:

[4:00] Modern medicine tends to prioritize intervention over prevention. But why?

[7:30] We’re taught to fear the outdoors, but indoor living can be directly harmful in ways we’re only beginning to understand

[11:30] Why it’s time to view “screen time” as “ultra-processed time”

[16:00] Exactly how a daily dose of morning sunlight resets insulin sensitivity, hunger timing, and prefrontal cortex function

[30:00] Outside exercise is better for you than inside exercise, so take your movement outdoors!
