The Glo Podcast

The Glo Podcast asks questions about self-care, deepening your sense of self and inspiring you to take action for a better world. Derik Mills, co-founder and co-CEO of Glo.com, speaks with guests about their practices and solutions for managing burnout, getting more sleep, dealing with anxiety, and becoming a better listener.

We deepen our understanding of the connections we make in inner experiences that emerge from our biology, within our psychology, and through physical movement, and bring them into our outer experiences of relationships, workplace culture, and leadership. Self-care extends into our work life, our family life, and our innermost experiences of self. Self-care is not merely a concept we use to explore ourselves. It is a complexity of practices we can do with each other and by ourselves. We cover meditation and yoga practices, strategies to develop more inner strength and calm, and life choices to help you work with anxiety and burnout.

Glo connects people through self-care so that, together, we can heal ourselves and our planet.

Meditation Practices Based on Science Can Change Your Physical Health with Dr. Dan Siegel May 30, 2021

Show notes

This special episode of The Glo Podcast features a talk given by Dr. Dan Siegel, a clinical professor of psychiatry at the UCLA School of Medicine and the founding co-director of UCLA’s Mindful Awareness Research Center, at Glo HQ in Santa Monica just before the COVID-19 lockdown. Dr. Siegel gives an in-depth discussion on how to use The Wheel of Awareness, a useful meditation tool he developed with over two decades of clinical research studies. It’s a visual metaphor for how the mind works and a way to “expand the container of consciousness.”

Dr. Siegel has dedicated his work to challenging traditional ideas of the mind and the self. He breaks down misconceptions of these concepts to help us reach a new understanding of the human experience, which emphasizes our interconnectedness, unity, and the unequivocal importance of love.
