How can I learn meditation or mindfulness at home?

I recommend purchasing 'A pocket guide to meditation' It's a wonderful book which helped me to start my own journey years ago. I'm so glad you're interested in starting this practice, it's truly life changing. Happy journeys

The simplest way to practice mindfulness and meditate at home is to sit somewhere that you won't be interupted for at least 10 minutes, get into a comfortable position (lying down often leads to powernaps which is okay if you need them, but sitting up might make it easier to stay awake!) and start by focusing on your breathing. Don't think about breathing different just notice the breath you take. Notice what it feels like going in, going out. If you find your mind wandering, gently refocus on your breathing again until you feel yourself start to relax. This may initially take a few minutes longer but with practice it will get easier! Once you feel yourself relaxing, ask yourself a question or your higher power/God/spirit guides/guardian angels/deceased relative...whatever feels right to you. Then, do nothing. Simply go back to visualizing your breath, how it enters your body, where it goes, maybe imagine it one color full of life and energy going in and another going out, releasing any worries or ideas that do not serve your highest and most relaxed self. Listen to any words, lyrics, symbols, thoughts that come to you regarding your question. Write it down if needed, or just remember and continue your meditation. Ask if there is anything else? Repeat the above steps as needed and end by asking yourself to relax, remembering 3 things to be grateful for today and then take some deep breathes and go about your day!

There are plenty of videos online. Just search up 'meditation tutorials' or 'practice mindfulness' and some videos should pop up. Go through them and find one you like, and then do what the video says!

There are loads of apps that talk you through meditation and mindfulness techniques, there are also videos on YouTube as well as being lots of websites out there that can help you out :)

You can easily learn to meditate or mindfulness on the internet. You can visit Youtube or Directly search it on Google. There are many self learn guides you can find.

I can go somewhere quiet and just focus on my breathing, try and breath out all negative emotions and feelings

You can learn to meditate through different apps, the internet, or YouTube. c: Mindfulness tends to come through meditation, so start there - it might help.

Lots of great youtube videos, articles online, and sometimes just making up your own meditation ritual or schedule can help. Get ideas from different people and work with what works best for you.

Easy, just take 5-10 minutes of your day for this - whenever it's best for you, but most people do this either in the morning or before bed since that's when they have the most time and are the least worried about things happening that day. Anyway, find a comfortable place to sit where you won't be disrupted. Then close your eyes and just bring your attention to your breathing and the rise/fall of your stomach. Or even the feel of the air moving in and out of your nose. Whenever you catch your mind wondering off, bring your attention back to your breathing. Continue to do this for how ever long you've set out to do it. You could even set a timer.

You can start by doing breathing techniques. Breathing in for 3 seconds and breathing out for 2 seconds. There are many apps that will have yoga and other activities that help with meditation and mindfulness. It is very helpful for when you feel uneasy or overwhelmed. Try to find a place that you feel safe, and calm at because it will help with the meditation. Make sure to be aware where you are it will help you feel safe and calm. For situations where you cannot be alone or you do not feel at peace then I suggest deep breaths to calm down first.

There are many ways to learn mindfulness, because there are all different types of mindfulness! You could go out of your way to really empathize with someone you know, or help someone in need. Or, you could practice breathing/meditation/relaxation. Doing those would help you be mindful of the feelings and thoughts inside of you. Then there's hobbies, activities that make you feel calm and mindful on the inside, while still engaged in some sort of activity. For meditation, it's really just about getting to a state of 100% relaxation, then maybe you could let a "guided meditation" video play in the background.

Practice, practice, practice:). Meditation and mindfulness are often thought of as time taken from your day, sitting cross legged and humming for a period of time. This doesn’t have to be the case at all, meditation can be done anytime and anywhere. It’s a time for you to really be in the moment. Quiet your mind, peaceful breathing and intentional thought.. that’s it! Taking a moment or 5, just for you. Clearing your mind of stress, being aware of each breath in and out, staying present. Practicing this in the morning while you’re still lying in bed is a great time and way to start your day. Doing this practice will help you achieve mindfulness, which is again, being in the present. Not looking to the past and not looking too far forward. Today in this moment is what you have to work with, and it’s up to you to decide how you’d like to be there

Congratulations on deciding to learn meditation and mindfulness! There are so many amazing benefits to practicing meditation. I think learning meditation and mindfulness at home is a lot easier than you think! You can always try some apps that practice breathing with you and can help guide you! I'm sure there are also playlists you could listen to! Being mindful is ultimately just about being present in the moment and focusing on your breathing! Some people write down when their mind wanders, but don't beat yourself up over it! It all takes practice! You got this and I believe in you!
