    How to Meditate REALLY | What 7 Days with a Monk Taught Me About a Busy Mind

    Have you ever struggled with how to meditate when your mind feels too loud, too anxious, or just won't slow down? In this solo episode, I'm sharing what actually happened when I spent seven days at a monastery — and why the experience completely changed how I understand meditation. I didn't find instant peace. I met my own restlessness, overthinking, and discomfort first. I even got the flu! But that's exactly where the learning began.  If you've struggled with how to start meditation, or felt like meditation for anxiety just doesn't work for you, this episode offers a gentler way in. We talk about simple meditation techniques that support your nervous system instead of forcing stillness, and the real benefits of meditation that go far beyond relaxation. This is about learning how to sit with yourself without needing to fix or change what you find there.   Key Moments 02:12 — Arriving at the monastery: meeting my busy mind instead 08:40 — How to start meditation when stillness feels uncomfortable 16:05 — Meditation for anxiety: why nothing needed to be controlled 23:30 — Meditation techniques I learned from living alongside a monk 31:10 — The deeper benefits of meditation    Listen for… a softer, more honest way to meditate — one that helps you feel less at war with your thoughts and more at home in your own mind.

    TAPPING FOR ANXIETY? | Sinead Stewart Talks Deep Stress Relief with EFT Tapping

    What if tapping for anxiety could calm your nervous system faster than meditation, affirmations, or journaling? If you've tried all the "right" tools to manage anxiety — meditation, breathwork, affirmations — and still feel restless, overwhelmed, or stuck in your head, this episode offers a body-based alternative.  Tapping for anxiety, also known as emotional freedom technique (EFT tapping), is a form of somatic healing that uses gentle tapping on meridian points to support nervous system healing and release stored emotional stress. In this episode of Feel Good Nakd, we explore why tapping works especially well for women who struggle to sit still, quiet the mind, or force calm — and how working with the body can create real relief. About the Guest I'm joined by Sinéad Stewart, a certified EFT practitioner who helps people regulate their nervous systems and release stored emotional patterns through tapping.  Sinéad shares how she discovered EFT during a period of intense anxiety, why it became the one practice that truly stuck, and how she now guides others through tapping in a grounded, accessible way — especially for those who feel resistant to traditional meditation. Key Moments 00:00 – Why tapping for anxiety works when meditation doesn't 04:30 – What emotional freedom technique (EFT tapping) actually is 08:45 – Nervous system healing through somatic touch 12:10 – Releasing stored emotions from the body 15:30 – Guided tapping for anxiety, fear, and uncertainty   Listen For… A calming, practical way to regulate anxiety that doesn't require forcing positivity, silencing your thoughts, or bypassing emotions — just your body, your breath, and a few minutes of intentional release.   In this holistic healing podcast episode: How tapping for anxiety supports real-time nervous system regulation Why EFT tapping works when mindset tools fall short The role of somatic healing in releasing stored emotional stress How emotional freedom technique supports long-term nervous system healing A guided tapping practice you can return to whenever anxiety spikes This episode is especially helpful if you experience overthinking, anxiety, fear of the unknown, or feel disconnected from your body despite trying traditional anxiety tools.
