Real Food Stories

Can meditation truly transform your life?
Join us for an enlightening conversation with Anne Swanson, a renowned yoga therapist and author, who shares her incredible journey from battling chronic pain and anxiety to finding peace and clarity through the power of meditation. You'll gain deep insights into how meditation acts as a "boot camp for your focus," promoting structural and biochemical changes in the brain that lead to lasting mental and physical health benefits. Anne's new book, "Meditation for the Real World," serves as a powerful resource for understanding and integrating these practices into your daily life.
Discover how just one minute of meditation can significantly impact your stress levels, awareness, and overall well-being. We bust the myth that meditation requires long, silent sessions, and instead explore the practicality of short, mindful moments throughout the day. Experience a one-minute guided meditation with us and learn how these brief practices can improve decision-making, and relationships, and cultivate a balanced life. Anne also shares valuable tips on mindful eating and cooking, enhancing your sensory experiences and mindfulness.
For women navigating perimenopause and menopause, Anne offers tailored meditation techniques to alleviate symptoms such as headaches, anxiety, and sleep disturbances. Explore the importance of finding meaning during life transitions and the innovative use of scientifically-engineered sounds to enhance meditation.
