Gentle Meditation for Midday

Our meditation practices are designed for people with no meditation experience. They're simple, short, and perfect for busy days.

No special skills or beliefs required. Just you, a comfortable spot, and a few minutes of time.

The simplest meditation. Sit comfortably, close your eyes, notice your breath. When your mind wanders, gently return to your breath. 5-10 minutes.

Move your attention through your body from head to toe, noticing sensations without trying to change them. Deeply relaxing. 10-15 minutes.

Generate feelings of warmth and care, first for yourself, then gradually extending to others. Perfect for difficult days. 10 minutes.

Notice what you can see, hear, feel, smell right now. Anchors you in the present. Can be done anywhere. 3-5 minutes.

Count your breaths from 1 to 10, then start again. If you lose count, begin at 1. Helps focus wandering minds. 5-10 minutes.

Instead of focusing on one thing, let your awareness be open to whatever arises. More advanced but deeply restful. 10-15 minutes.
