Five Podcasts That Help You Reflect

There are times when we get the feeling that something is lacking in our lives. You may perhaps feel a sense of inadequacy or even grapple with mild discomfort over a certain situation. And over many occasions, we may find ourselves guilty of the following two cognitive traps: blaming others and blaming yourselves.

But life has always been unpredictable in that manner and not everything is always within our control. The truth is, there is no leverage in blaming anyone. The key, however straightforward it may be, is to stay positive and keep a sound mind against the conundrums.

Having spent the bulk of my time trawling through YouTube and Spotify playlists for the ideal podcasts to attain peak mindfulness, here’re 10 suggestions to help us keep motivated, keep a sound mind, and stay informed.

Podcast 1: The Mindful Minute by Meryl Arnett
Meditation and spirituality have seen a huge comeback in recent news along with the growing awareness for mental health. The Mindful Minute is highly recommended by those seeking to practice meditation.
