29. How to Stress Less and Accomplish More with Emily Fletcher (founder, Ziva Meditation) 🧘

“What you seek is seeking you.” – Rumi Wherever you are in the world, there’s a strong chance that you’ve been feeling a great deal of stress lately. And 2020 certainly seems like a year of transition for all of us. So how bad is it? Well, Harvard suggests that up to 80% of doctor’s visits are caused by stress, and that was before all of this hit. This made it the perfect time to have Emily Fletcher, who is regarded as the leading expert in meditation for high performance, on the Win the Day podcast. What Emily teaches is extremely practical and eliminates the shortfalls that I’ve personally experienced from other types of meditation. Every session also ties in directly to goal-setting and manifestation, which is one of the attributes I love most about it. But don’t just take my word for it! Emily has worked with Navy SEALs, NBA players, Academy Award winners, and globally recognized CEOs. Her work has been featured in The New York Times, The Today Show, and Vogue magazine, and she’s spoken at Google, Viacom, and Harvard Business School. Today, The Ziva Technique founder has taught 20,000+ students around the world how to perform at their best. Emily’s new book ‘Stress Less, Accomplish More’ is also a wonderful introduction to the challenges we face today and a practical guide to living at your best – in all areas of your life. In this interview, we talk about her 10-year career on Broadway, what she teaches the most elite performers on the planet, how to reach new levels of productivity despite what’s going on in the world, and how you can use meditation to unlock your full potential. __ BLOG version of this episode: https://jameswhitt.com/newsletters PODCAST version of this episode: https://jameswhitt.com/podcast/ Hit 'Subscribe' and get access to episodes as soon as they're released! __ Resources/links mentioned: 🕯️ ⁠Balancing Breath exercise⁠: https://youtu.be/wHc-fjonnek 📷 ⁠Emily Fletcher on Instagram⁠: https://instagram.com/emilystellafletcher/ 📝 ⁠Ziva Meditation on Facebook⁠: https://fb.com/zivameditation/ 📗 ⁠Emily’s new book ‘Stress Less, Accomplish More’⁠: https://amzn.to/3fVaDzo __ Connect with James Whittaker: IG: @jameswhitt  | Web: https://jameswhitt.com  __ Enjoying the show?
