Start a Meditation Practice

Are you looking to start a meditation practice?

If you’ve been stressed on your fertility journey, meditating can be a great tool to add into your self-care routine to help you feel more grounded.

Here are 3 steps to start a meditation practice with ease.

Step 1: Start Small

start by meditating for less than a minute
as you build your concentration, you can practice for longer

Step 2: Build Good Habits

meditate in the same spot every day
meditate at the same time every day
set your goal to practice every day, or every week day, (not 3x/week)

Step 3: Find a Guide You Love

listen to guided meditation until you get comfotable doing it on your own
find a guide whose voice makes you feel soothed
try several different types of meditation to find the one that feels like the best fit for you
discover whether you like to have background music, sounds, or not

A few things to keep in mind

Non-Judgment: You’re not “bad” at meditating if you keep getting distracted. Practice letting go of judging yourself.

Meditation has no goal: You’re not “trying” to feel calmer by meditating. Keep an open mind and be curious of the outcome.

Meditation brings you to the truth: If you’ve been hiding from your feelings, starting a meditation practice can make you come to terms with how you’re actually feeling.
