Finding Calm in the Chaos - Guided Meditation With Zen Master Henry Shukman #631

Hey, guys. How are you doing? Hope you're having a good week so far. My name is Doctor. Rangan Chatterjee, and this is my podcast, Feel Better, Live More. Meditation is an incredibly powerful tool for transforming our lives. But in the modern world, many people find it a challenging practice to start and maintain. So this March, I have decided to try and inspire more people to take up this life changing practice. Throughout the month, we're teaming up with Zen master, Henry Shookman, and his meditation app, The Way, to bring you our first ever meditation challenge. Now I've tried so many meditation apps over the years, but I've never come across one as effective as The Way. I've been using it most mornings for many months now, and it has really helped me feel calmer, relaxed, and more present. I love this app so much that I recently decided to invest in the company and join them in their mission to get more people meditating. As I believe, this will result in a calmer, happier, and more compassionate world. Meditation has been shown to have all kinds of benefits, reducing stress, improving focus, and over time has even been shown to result in positive structural changes in the brain. But, of course, you only get those benefits if you actually do it. So this March, why not join Henry and me and thousands of other meditators on a thirty day journey that has the potential to transform your life? All you have to do to take part in this free challenge is go to the wayapp.com forward slash live more. You'll get practical tips, exclusive content, and 30 free short meditation sessions to get you going. Committing to thirty consecutive days of meditation really does have the potential to create a lasting daily habit. I will also be joining in the challenge and using the Way app every day throughout the month. I very much hope that you decide to join me. And now to give you a flavor of what Henry's meditations are like, here's a beautiful meditation that he recorded exclusively for my podcast community. Welcome to this meditation with me, Henry Shookman. Thank you so much for joining me. I'm really happy and grateful to be able to share this practice with you. A practice that has meant so much to me for many years. It has greatly, greatly helped me with various challenges I've had in my life. There's a lot of research, a ton of research these days into meditation and how helpful it can be to help us recalibrate our nervous systems, dial our nervous systems down, get more centered, more grounded, and find more peace and less reactivity in our lives. At the same time, I know it can be rather a challenging prospect how to build in another habit when we already may have various things we're trying to do daily to help ourselves. I like to think of …
