217 - Meditation Beyond Burnout: Kevin Ellerton on Stillness, Presence, and Reclaiming Well-Being
Manage episode 508791986 series 3301052
In this Self Care September: Exploration of Stillness episode of Beyond Chronic Burnout, host Carole Jean Whittington is joined by meditation teacher, author, and global wellness leader Kevin Ellerton.
Kevin shares his personal story of building a multi-million-dollar company on Wall Street by age 24—only to walk away from it all in search of something deeper. His journey led him to Buddhist monasteries in Thailand, years of global study, and ultimately founding Meditation Magazine and Meditation University, where over 200,000 people have learned meditation practices.
Together, Carole Jean and Kevin explore:
🌿 How meditation supports burnout recovery at the physiological, emotional, and cognitive levels
🌿 Why chasing outcomes in meditation prevents you from receiving its benefits
🌿 The paradox of presence: how to stop “trying” and start being
🌿 Personal stories of burnout recovery through stillness and conscious lifestyle choices
Kevin’s message is clear: meditation isn’t about perfection or performance—it’s a universal human practice, a way to root yourself in presence and reconnect with what matters most.
