Meditation for beginners. Learn how to meditate in 10 minutes

Learn how to meditate in 10 minutes. I will take you through a brief introduction into the confusing and sometimes intimidating world of meditation. You'll find out how easy it is to get started and learn a simple technique that you can practice every day.

Meditation and mindfulness are on trend right now. Especially after the challenges we faced in 2020, this practice has become an integral part of the lives of many.

However, when searching for information online, it can be really daunting. It can seem like such a mystical practice, suited only to those of us who are evolved enough to understand it. You might find comments on message boards of experienced practitioners warning that it's dangerous and that you should only try this with the help of a guru, or they might spout a whole bunch of exotic names and confusing terms that just leave you thinking that it's not for you.

Meditation is for everyone. In its most basic form is the discovery of one’s self where we can learn how to quieten the mind and change how we react to things. It’s about understanding how our minds work and learning to become an observer of our thoughts rather than an actor playing a role in them. It’s a practice of being completely in the present moment and achieving a state of relaxed focus.

The biggest challenge with meditation will probably be consistency of practice, so identify a time in your day when you can set aside 5-10 minutes to do this. It’s a very small portion of your day, but the benefits of practicing this can literally be life-changing.
