To begin your day this way
is the best way.
Meditation helps tremendously here.
I have recently found a fantastic free App for my Smart phone
called Insight Timer.
It gives you the choice of guided meditations
or timed meditations.
On the featured meditations
there are some for stress,
mindfulness,
gratitude,
body scans,
sleep
and many more.
I have done some sleep ones too and they are just amazing.
You have a profile and collect stars for consecutive days of meditation.
With this App , I am eager to meditate every day,
whereas before I wanted to but didn’t always get around to it.
I always find time to do it now.

I meditate every day. Helps focus. Helps to rid anxiety. Helps me sleep. I generally feel so much calmer and “in tune.” And it’s easier to smile 🙂
I agree, since I started this I feel calmer too and I really enjoy it! Thanks Georgia 🙂
Why is it that the things which do us the most good seem to be the hardest to do? I know logically that I should meditate every day, but never quite manage it. Thanks so much for the tip re the app, and this important reminder overall – I’m off to find a quiet seat now….! 🙂
Liz, I found it hard and really wanted it and with the app, I can do it, I always find time. Have a peaceful moment! ♥
Thank you for the pleasant reminder, Ute. May your day be filled with blessings.
Many blessings to you Russ!
That looks like a great app, Ute. We love to meditate too 🙂 Double Pawkiss 🙂 ❤
I am glad to hear that. Sometimes I meditate but my mum thinks I am sleeping…… I love meditating on her lap! 🙂 Nothing better than a cat nap meditation! 🙂
I use my tarot cards for meditation, but my physiotherapist has said that I need to meditate more so I may look into getting this app. Thanks Ute.
I love it also as it shows that other people are meditating with you. I am pretty sure you would enjoy it! Have a try! ♥ ( and it is free) 🙂
I will do 🙂
