We've grown up surrounded by beauty ideals that promised confidence, but often delivered shame.

In a special episode of a millennial mind, I sat down with Nicola Adams to explore how appearance-based

compliments and body talk shape our self-worth without us realising it. In partnership with the

Dove Self-Esteen project, we unpack the tools to change the conversation for

ourselves and for future generations. Listen now and download the free body confidence journal

Hello everyone.

Welcome to this episode of the Mindful and Minutes podcast.

I'm Kelly and today we are going to do a five minute follow your breath meditation.

And this is our community mini mini so any and all ad revenue

generated on this episode is going to be donated to my local community closet so i will take that

donation and i will go and purchase some of my community closets um most needed items, and then I will bring them there.

So that's what we're supporting this month.

When you're ready, get comfortable.

Create a long spine.

Making sure you can breathe without anything getting in the way.

And we'll begin just by taking three big, deep, cleansing breaths,

inhaling through the nose, and open mouth exhale, let it go.

Do this two more times, activating the breath, letting it begin to move through you.

And now bring your awareness to your breath

allow your breath to be smooth and effortless

and just notice as the air moves in and out of the body
