The Mindful FIRE Podcast 51 : Meditation : Practicing Awareness & Gratitude
Welcome to The Mindful FIRE Podcast, where we explore living mindfully on the path to financial independence and beyond. I'm your host Adam Coelho and I'm so glad you're here.
On this week's guided meditation practice, we practice a simple mindful awareness practice. In this shorter practice we practicing bringing a kind, curious awareness to the experience of breathing, moment by moment and breath by breath.
We finish the practice by bringing to mind someone or something we're extremely grateful for. Then we rest in a kind, curious awareness of the feeling of gratitude.
I hope you enjoy this simple but powerful practice.
If you haven't already, i invite you to check out my last episode where I introduce myself and share my vision for the podcast.

🔥 WHAT we’ll do together (over 10 weeks)
