Yes, if you started a meditation practice, like that would obviously be very helpful, but then you have to like sit quietly with your thoughts for 20 minutes a day. Like, obviously that seems horrible.

So recently I've been experiencing these feelings of burnout related to my newsletter. where I love doing it, but it also feels harder than it has. And I've been doing it at least three times a week, sometimes as many as five for seven years. And so I think this is just sort of a natural thing.

And so I felt like I need to maybe break glass in the case of this emergency and try something that I'd never previously wanted to do, which was meditate. Oh, wow. So I'm only a few days into this. I don't want to tell you that I've solved anything here. I did enjoy my first few experiences.

But one of the things that I did both in the run-up to and the aftermath of these meditation experiences was to just chat with Claude. Because Claude lets you create something called a project where you can upload a few documents and you can chat with those documents.

And then you can just also kind of check in with it from day to day and tell you what you're noticing or observing or if you have questions. And to me, this was a perfect use case for this technology because I truly know nothing about meditation. People have talked to me about it. I've done it a couple of times before, but I've never read a book about it.

I've never talked with any of my friends at length about it. So I'm just as fresh as you can be. And the level of knowledge that is inside Claude, which was, of course, just stolen from the internet without paying anyone from their labor, is actually quite high. Yeah. And it was able to help give me a good start.

And then afterwards, I could come back and say, well, you know, here's what I noticed. And I struggle with this thing. They'll say, oh, well, you might want to try that. Or, you know, I sort of wish it was a little bit more like this. And it would say, oh, well, then you might want to try this other kind of meditation. Tell me more about that. Okay, yeah, sure. Here's everything. And

I was talking earlier about like, what will it be like when you have an AI coworker? It's like, well, I have a meditation coach that I pay 20 bucks a month for. Some people are laughing. Some people are saying, Casey, you can meditate for free. You don't need a coach. I get that. I am somebody who likes to like pay for access to expertise. And I feel like I have it.
