NBA Women's Leadership Forum - Guided Meditation

Updated: Jun 8, 2024


Jennifer had the pleasure of speaking at the NBA Women's Leadership Forum. She walked the audience through a guided meditation and provided helpful tips on starting meditation.


Guided Meditation

"If you are waiting for the right time to meditate, you probably never will, especially if you are new to the practice."

Start Small


Jennifer shared that starting to meditate can be hard. Finding the "magic time" to sit still and listen to your internal narrative is unrealistic. She instead suggests for newcomers to start small. Set a goal of a few minutes each day to:

  • close your eyes

  • connect with your breath

  • center yourself

  • be more balanced and grounded

There are so many different ways to meditate, but it is important to put a system in place that works for you in order to make mediation a part of your daily routine.

Breathing and Meditation

Updated: Jun 8, 2024





Breathing exercises are a natural answer to the unrest we all feel daily.


“When we experience stress, the fight-or-flight response is activated, and your heart rate is elevated. You have a lot of adrenaline moving through your body and cortisol,” Monness explains.


“When we start to take some long, deep breaths in very patterned, rhythmic ways, we actually signal our nervous system that now, in response to fight-or-flight, we can rest and digest. The heart rate is lowered, and blood pressure goes down.”
