Summary
Today on this mini edition of TLS, I’m sharing my top 5 favorite guided meditation apps.
Whenever people tell me that they have a hard time hearing from their intuition, or being able to tell the voice of the “ego” apart from their intuition, meditation is the #1 practice I recommend starting with.
Observing our thoughts in meditation helps us recognize each thought’s source and feeling within ourselves. And as we get better at understanding what “ego” thoughts tend to feel like, we can start to tell them apart from intuitive guidance.
Over the years, I’ve tried many meditation apps, meditation formats, and even a meditation class. And in today’s episode I’m sharing the five guided meditations that I use again and again.
This episode is perfect for anyone looking for a great introduction to some beginner-friendly guided meditations in a variety of formats.

| 0:51.6 | As you guys have been hearing me talk about it, I have a one-way |
| 0:54.5 | ticket starting in London on May 9th. I'll be flying out of New York. I'll be going |
| 1:00.1 | to New York for an interview on May 6th, spending a few days in New York and |
| 1:04.1 | then flying out from there because it's a lot cheaper to fly to London from New York |
