Meditation is a part of my daily life as I am Buddhist so this was very natural for me. I have a main guided meditation guy that I stick to because his voice is calming but not enough for me to fall asleep. That’s what this woman’s voice was like, I was falling asleep a bit. I love meditation and its effects on the body and think everyone should sit down with their thoughts at least once a week. I sort of liked this meditation, but wouldn’t use it again. However, I did feel really calm and enjoyed the imagery in the video.

That is such great insight into choosing a meditation guide. Because you do it every day, what are some other tips that you can share that make it more accessible to others? As you saw in some of the other reflections, people (me included), like to move and sitting still for so long is tricky. (Not that 10 minutes is a long time.) One thing that I learned the other day is how to stack my spine so that I am more comfortable, but that takes some time too! Let me know what you think.

I think it’s really just each to their own. I have back problems because of my medication so a lot of the time I’ll just lay down or use a wall instead of relying on myself to keep my spine straight. Guided meditations aren’t set in stone so a lot of the time I do variations of what they’re saying and just do what feels right. As for sitting still, that is something that isn’t super malleable as meditation requires you to tune into your mind and your body so that’s just something that comes along with practice! I also think doing like a meditation where you just let your thoughts wander is helpful towards other meditation sessions as you can learn how to control and warp your mind and your thoughts.
