The first ever meditation that I used!!
Hey all,
So a few years ago, a therapist introduced me to the concept of mindfulness through meditation. He then encouraged me to look on YouTube for guided meditations as well. Before long, I ran into this particular mindfulness-meditation:
It's kind of nostalgic for me to look back at the first time I meditated. I remember thinking that 10 minutes was a long time to be in that state. But soon enough, I worked my way up to doing 20, 30, and then full hour meditations.
Meditation is certainly a hobby that I wish I was more consistent with. Because every time I do it, I reap the benefits--even with just the mindfulness gained.
@sereneSunset26 thanks for sharing!! my first meditation was only a 5 minute one because I used to have a very small attention span, so way to go as a start with 10 minutes! 😛 what devices/websites do you use to meditate?
@AveryLove
Haha! I think most people have (or at least start) with short attention spans. :)
For meditations, I pretty much just stick to guided ones on YouTube (usually from The Honest Guys or Michael Sealey). 99% of the time I use my phone for them, but I do have a few stored on my iPod for offline use as well.

I love this meditation video! You will not believe but it is also the first mindfulness meditation that I practiced and it is one of the best out there in my opinion.
