Day 79: Take a Minute, Meditate

This morning I felt like I needed meditation to start my day. To stop, pause. Think. Take a minute. I took a break from posting sunshiney selfies and cottage life to share content by black creators, friends, and use my platform to share their voices.

I did a morning meditation by Elaisha Jade and signed up for her 30-day daily course. I love her voice, it’s so soothing and you can head her smile. Elaisha started her company after working in tech for years and feeling the burn out all often go through. At Your Mindful, she focusses on bringing mindfulness and meditation in-person or online to people around the world. Thank you Elaisha!

If you want to book a private online session with her, book it here. She also has a self-guided silent retreat you can sign up for here. To sign up and join me for 30-days of meditation for free, scroll down!

Your Mindful was founded by Elaisha Jade, a 3 times certified Dynamic Meditation teacher. Her meditation practice began after almost 5-years in the Toronto start-up tech scene left her overworked and ill. By studying and applying meditation and mindfulness teachings she was able to find purpose and productivity in her work again. She felt called to bring this life-changing practice to other managers and workers in the workplace. She now leads retreats, workshops and sessions in studios and offices in Toronto and around the world.

In other news, I broke my personal 5K record on Nike Training and have been officially running for 6 months! Extremely grateful to Amy Shio aka @lesbest for her monthly challenges, she’s really motivated me to get off my booty and hit the pavement. I ran 100Km last month!
