Rob Dube | Building A Better Meditation Practice | Meditation Demystified: Part 2

In episode two of our three-part Meditation Demystified series, Emmy and I chat about the basics of starting a meditation practice. What should you expect—and not expect—as you begin exploring mindfulness? We also put to rest some lingering myths about meditation, and go more in-depth about the advantages it brings to business and leadership.

In Meditation Demystified: Part II, you’ll learn:

  • Whether complete stillness and silence is essential to meditation

  • Rob’s personal favorite benefits of meditation

  • Why meditation is like building up muscles

  • How meditation is like a “reboot” for your mind during moments of stress

  • Why it’s normal to feel unsure about starting a meditation practice

  • How meditation makes you a better, more focused listener and leader

  • The importance of reframing moments and situations—and how meditation helps

  • Why retreats are fantastic ways to jumpstart your meditation practice

  • Which top companies and CEOs are using mindfulness

  • Why starting a meditation practice is like starting a business


As meditation turns more mainstream and continues to grow, so does curiosity surrounding the practice. People want to know what’s behind all the hype. Can sitting in silence really make us better leaders—and better people overall?

In the donothing Meditation Demystified minisode series, I sat down with longtime imageOne team member, meditation practitioner and silent retreat participant Emmy Georgeson. Together, we’ll reveal insights into the meditation practice, clarify common myths and discuss the benefits of (and apprehensions towards) joining a silent retreat.
