We all know we should meditate. We all know that being in the moment – practicing mindfulness, is a wonderful way to reduce stress and anxiety. The problem is, if you aren’t trained in the art of meditation it can be difficult to master.
Most of us give meditation a cursory try before tossing it on the back burner.
Let’s face it, mediation is hard and if you’re in need of meditation odds are you’re already stressed out, out of time and out of patience to try to learn something new. Who has time to read, watch YouTube videos or take a class to learn this most important skill?
