Listen as Jackie Carroll, a health coach with University of Kentucky Health and Wellness, invites listeners to slow down and cultivate a sense of calm amid financial stress in this guided meditation. The meditation encourages compassion, clarity and steadiness—supporting a more open, resilient approach to financial wellness.

Key Takeaways: 

  • Slowing down reduces stress. Gentle breathing and grounding help soften the emotional intensity that often surrounds money. 
  • Values provide clarity. Identifying one core financial value anchors decision-making and reduces overwhelm. 
  • Compassion matters. Recognizing your own humanity and the humanity of those you share financial responsibilities with opens space for understanding rather than conflict.
