Be Still And Notice: A Yoga Podcast

Episode 7: Why Meditation Isnt About "Clearing The Mind"

Helen taylor

In this episode I look at the most common misconceptions that people hold about meditation and why these are not just holding people back,but even stopping them from beginning. I talk about the main barriers that people can come across and my top tips to help you get started meditating and crucially, to keep going.

I recorded this episode once before and in doing so realised that there was a HUGE amount that I wanted to say, so I decided to go back to the drawing board and break it down into different episodes.

I mention two apps that I like to use:

I also reference the late great Sri Ramana Maharshi, and his Atma Vichara practice. I visited his wonderful ashram in Tiruvannamalai in 2020 and it is a beautiful place to visit and spend time in meditation. You can find out more about this here:
