7 Calming Meditation Techniques for Beginners
If you've been wanting to learn about meditation, now is a fantastic time. It's hard and scary out there, and there's nothing wrong with feeling anxious, unproductive, or sad. In fact, it's a normal and human reaction to what's going on right now. But so is the desire for accessible ways to feel just a little bit better, and for some, meditation can provide just that.
However, it can also be a little bit intimidating to get started — even if, in reality, you don't need much.
