What is the Difference Between Meditation and Mindfulness Ep. 68

Author: Michael Mackintosh & Shireen Chada April 6, 2025 Duration: 46:20
Welcome to Spiritual Sense! Much love and blessings to you all! Today, we’re diving deep into the world of meditation and mindfulness—what’s the difference? Are you doing it right? Many people wonder: Is there a "correct" way to meditate? How does mindfulness fit in? Why do so many give up before experiencing real benefits? The truth? There are thousands of meditation techniques, and mindfulness is just one of them. When used correctly, meditation can be life-changing—but if misunderstood, it can leave people frustrated and quitting too soon. In this eye-opening conversation, we explore: Why popular descriptions of meditation (like "just observe your thoughts") can be misleading The pitfalls of "mindlessness" (yes, we said it!) How Raj Yoga meditation transforms you on a deeper level Why identity shifts ("I am a peaceful soul") work better than passive observation The science-backed power of self-realization and soul consciousness If you’ve ever felt meditation "wasn’t for you," this discussion might just change your mind. True meditation isn’t about forcing silence—it’s about awakening to your highest self. Sending you infinite love and light! Shanti, Shanti, Shanti. ✨ ✨ https://www.youtube.com/@SpiritualSensePodcast Welcome to the Spiritual Sense podcast, a sanctuary for spiritual seekers and those on a journey of self-discovery.
