Calm

Listen to it tomorrow night.

What are those things that people listen to on those apps? The Calm app.

We can't wait till you listen.

The meditation.

Brown noise.

We can't wait till you listen to our meditation Calm app episode.

Yeah.

And it was so fun.

I try and do it if I'm going from A to B, but when I'm at home, as I am today, I have to kind of go for a walk, which is harder.

And I do 10 minutes of meditation every morning with my Calm.com app.

Or I'll do a walking meditation when I'm out having my 10,000 steps, which I just did before I came on the podcast.

And I find that those two things really kind of help me focus.

I need to do at least one of those things because right now I'm just so drained.

I also downloaded the Calm app.

Ah.

This is not sponsored.

They come up with a pet rock, and they'll make a million dollars selling the pet rock, right? Alex Tew is a t- a trickster.

He did the Million Dollar Homepage, and then he did Calm, calm.com. And the first product for Calm was an app that you opened up, and it just said, "Do nothing for two minutes." And it got popular, and he's on the late-night show, and people...

It, it, it's...

They create these, like, almost viral sensations.

I, I, I meditate twice a day, in the morning and before I go to sleep, and my males will meditate with me.

They react to the, um, I use either Calm.com or the Apple Fitness one, and they react to the music and they react to the voice, you know, the calming voice with the meditation.

So-

And they know.

You might think of a song, a memory.

Something might emerge that's like, "Oh, that would be a great hook," or, "That'd be a great way to lead into this piece that I wanna write about." Or, or it may come, like, you take the walk and you just feel like, "Okay, my nervous system feels a little better.

I feel calmer.

That's great." And then you sit down for your blocked out time to do these emails and just you get in the flow state.

Mm.

Mm-hmm.

So that is on my Calm app, and I will do Jay Shetty or the other guy, Jeff.

I do, I do his, uh, do their meditation, which is approximately 10 minutes.

Yeah.
