Mindfulness in Daily Life: Insights from Jiva Masheder

Time to Meditate? Make time for practice and it will make time for you.
Is mindfulness just a buzzword, or should it be woven into our daily lives? On this episode of 'The Waitlist', host Alex Manly sits down with Jiva Masheder, a seasoned mindfulness teacher who has been practicing since 1996. Jiva shares her journey and experiences teaching at the Mindfulness Project in London and Brighton, and working with Journey Live, a US-based service offering 30-minute mindfulness sessions to businesses.
Jiva breaks down the essence of mindfulness and its incredible benefits for mental health. She highlights how being present can transform our emotional wellbeing and why it's not always effective to rely solely on rational thinking to tackle emotional challenges. With her years of experience, Jiva offers practical tips on how to start and maintain a mindfulness practice. She also emphasizes the importance of community support and group sessions in fostering a deeper connection to mindfulness.
This episode is packed with actionable advice, from book recommendations to free resources like Palouse Mindfulness and Headspace for low-cost meditation. Whether you're new to mindfulness or looking to deepen your practice, Jiva's insights will inspire you to make mindfulness a part of your everyday life. Tune in to discover how small changes can lead to big improvements in your mental health.
