Mindful Meditation and Living a More Conscious Lifestyle - Dr. Candace Good

Today my guest is Dr. Candace Good, she is a child and adolescent psychiatrist and author of the newly released book, Own Your Present: A Psychiatrist’s Guide to Mindful Meditation and Living a More Conscious Lifestyle a book full of anecdotes and activities, and totally user-friendly for those of us who are new to mindfulness as a way of life.

Dr. Good has been practicing psychiatry for over 15 years and she got to the point that she was feeling depleted and was not able to keep up, developing chronic stress. Dr. Good was experiencing high functioning anxiety and even though she was successful on many levels, she was having to manage lots of anxious thoughts and feeling off and defective. Dr. Good started doing meditation and proactively making the shift to stop living a life where we often find ourselves reacting to stress rather than pausing to appreciate the moment.

This is what we discuss in depth:

• What mindfulness practice helped her anxiety.
  
• How to Own Your Present and create a life of impact.
  
• How to reach your authentic self and how to achieve it?
  
• What to do on a daily basis to keep grounded?
  

Mindfulness practice helps us reset, protect our energy, and move forward with a more peaceful heart.

Thanks for listening!

Wishing you the best of health,

Gunny Sodhi.
