Welcome to Casual Meditation — the place for people whose brains won’t shut the hell up.

In this guided meditation, Alex Maldo walks you through how to stop spiraling by labeling your thoughts — because sometimes the best way to quiet your mind is to call out “Pissy Work Alex” or “Doom Scenario Dave” when they show up.

You’ll learn a simple mindfulness trick to interrupt obsessive thinking, laugh at your mental chaos, and breathe your way back to calm. No robes, no chanting, just real-life stress relief with a sense of humor. Take a seat, take a breath, and remind your brain who’s actually in charge.
