While meditating has made its way onto almost everyone’s New Year’s resolution list, practicing “doing nothing” is harder to achieve than mindfulness websites or hippie instagrams make it. It takes a great level or inner discipline to meditate individually. The typical notion of meditation, for example, focusing on a leaf for three hours in silence, keeps a lot of us from experimenting with the practice. We fear its rigor, but also do not believe we have the time for it. We tend to forget that all it takes is a couple of minutes.
Guided meditations overpower our wandering thoughts to help us focus on the present. These meditations are also available at the click of a button and can be practiced on your couch. If you want to indulge in a night of self care and relaxation, take a look at these free guided meditations.
