CLEAR ALL
A beginner's guide to quieting the mind in a time of stress. Includes three guided meditations by popular mindfulness teachers to try now.
Mindfulness meditation has exploded in popularity in recent years. But it’s not the only option out there—practitioners of the less well-known Vedic meditation say it can also help us achieve calm, clarity, energy and focus. So, how do these two forms of meditation compare?
Consider doing something nice for your poor, flustered brain. Don't know how to meditate? Neither did we! So we asked Andy Puddicombe, the cofounder of Headspace and the voice on its app, to write this basic script. Have a friend read it to you slowly, setting a timer for 10 minutes.
Training the mind, meditating, being mindful, or whatever else we choose to call it only works if we actively engage with it. More than that, it only works if we practice it regularly, preferably on a daily basis with a considered, gentle discipline.
