Try out the Mindvalley Six Phase Meditation. Good especially if you have difficulty clearing your mind of thoughts

You can start out with these apps to get some discipline but meditation should be done without these if possible. #1 thing is breathing and that itself will help you 90%

I think meditation has made my focus better, I got good results with headspace

Accenture has 3 months fee for our peeps as well

The Calm app has some good beginners guided meditation

Go to a slower or yin yoga class. That's more focused on breathing and meditating

It helps me reset. When I work late, i used to have 2 options: 1. Have excel dreams or 2. Watch an hour or 2 of trash tv to turn my brain off. Now I can do a 5 minute sleep meditation and have no issues. I really like the peloton meditations.

It’s been sooo beneficial for me. Like going to the gym, sometimes I dread it but once I do it I’m so glad I did. Keeps me calm for days, better mood, easier to handle life with kindness.

Headspace app is a good beginner start. Insight timer is free and has tons of meditations. I prefer to do yoga. Not Core Power where it’s for a workout, do a flow yoga that puts meditation first.

Sharing my story: I carry an abnormal gene in which me and my wife's first child was affected. We decided with our second child to use IVF. We started our journey in January 2021 and my wife went through 4 IVF cycles using my sperm in a 9 month span (her choice). We decided after the 4th round failed to go a different route and use sperm donation to rid us of the gene. During 2022, she went through 4 rounds of IUI and finally got one that stuck. She is now 14 weeks pregnant and due in April 😊

What counts as “above and beyond” when you’re expected to work yourself to the bone as a baseline? A mentor has asked me to provide them with a list of “above and beyond” tasks/accomplishments for the year so they can advocate for a discretionary bonus for me. I’m obviously grateful, but after going through law school and now big law I no longer have a reasonable idea of what “above and beyond” even means. FWIW, I’m a 2016 grad, second full year at the firm after clerking + stub. Any thoughts?
