Drew brings his rich experience as a mental health professional and college professor to the table, making this episode a treasure trove of insights for anyone curious about the practical benefits of meditation.
He breaks down common myths, like the idea that meditation is all about achieving a quiet mind.

Drew also introduces practical techniques like box breathing and guided meditations, perfect for beginners.
