meditation podcasts that are worth a listen
As you may know, we recently launched "The 12 Pursuits" in which each month we will take on a new pursuit that challenges a specific area of intended expansion. This month we are focused on meditation and its benefits. One thing all of us here at Rhone do and do often is listen to podcasts. In order to help us (and hopefully you) become more meditation-minded throughout the month, we've put together a list of podcasts focused on meditation, the practice, and the benefits to help you feel more educated as to why it's a beneficial addition to any lifestyle.
1. Mindfulness for Beginners
Started in early 2020 and hosted by Shaun Donaghy, Mindfulness for Beginners is a podcast focused on the basics of mindfulness and meditation and how both pursuits help create a calmer, happier you.

Most of Chel Hamilton's meditations are just 10 minutes and sometimes even less.
