Begin with just a few minutes of meditation per day to avoid feeling overwhelmed. You can gradually increase the duration as you become more comfortable.
Choose a calm spot where you won’t be disturbed. Sit in a comfortable position—whether on a chair or on the floor—so you can focus without distractions or physical discomfort.
Breathing is the simplest meditation technique for beginners. Focus on your inhale and exhale, noticing how your breath feels as it enters and leaves your body.
Don’t expect immediate perfection. Your mind will wander, and that’s okay. The key is to gently guide your focus back without judgment.
For beginners, guided meditations can be extremely helpful. Apps like Headspace, Calm, and Insight Timer provide step-by-step instructions, making it easier to develop the habit.
