About the podcast

Moment of Mindful Meditation

Connecting my creative spirit, a focus on mindfulness and years of teaching adolescents, this is a meditation podcast you can listen to in 15 minutes or less.

The end of the 2020-2021 school year was a welcome respite from the challenges of remote education. I had spent the end of the school year teaching my students about mindfulness and meditation, and it was quite inspiring to see their enjoyment of something so simple.

Over the years, my students have enjoyed practicing yoga as a rare treat in dance class. Whenever I’d mention my plan to do a yoga lesson, someone would always excitedly ask “are we going to the beach?” That was in reference to a little guided meditation that I’d close out the practice, Savasana-style, that focused on imagery related to the ocean, the beach, and the warm sun. At the end of each meditation, I’d notice a classroom full of more relaxed, happier adolescents than when they walked in the room. Invariably, I’d hear some gentle snores happen in the five minutes of the practice.

At the end of that crazy pandemic school year, as part of my mindfulness lessons, I introduced the kids to some short meditations that reflected on the topic of the day. They really liked the quiet time and gave me some great feedback in response.

This got me to thinking, why not make a meditation podcast? One that is accessible to adolescents, or anyone who is new to the practice? Or anyone who is short on time, but needs something quick to keep them calm and centered.

I went to work, creating episodes on topics that I thought I might listen to. Each episode is less than 15 minutes, and people can listen and be on their way in no time. Hopefully, they’ll be a little calmer and happier for their effort.
