from Mental Fitness - the Gateway to Success · host Mikal Nielsen

In this episode of Mental Fitness: The Gateway to Success, we take the next step in the meditation journey we began over the last two episodes — and this time, we actually meditate together.I guide you through my personal 5 Stages of Meditation, a process I’ve developed over 32 years to help busy professionals move from basic awareness to profound inner stillness and fulfilment.Here’s what we explore: 1. Mindful OF X – Building awareness of what’s present. 2. Meditate ON X – Deepening the experience with focused intention. 3. Experience Mental Stillness – Meeting the quiet beneath the noise. 4. Meditate ON Stillness – Deepening your relationship with that quiet. 5. Dissolving the Meditator – A transformative shift beyond effort and identity.Whether you’re new to meditation or you’ve been practicing for years, this guided experience offers a simple, practical way to access more joy, clarity, and presence in your daily life.If you’d like more personalised guidance with this practice, feel free to reach out — I’m always happy to help you explore it further.
