Focus on your breath, try to sit still and most importantly just let go.

Why don’t I create a visual guide that people can reference whenever they need? Whether you’re on the go, away from cell service or just don’t feel like asking I’ve created this visual guide on how to meditate.

My nightly practice ranges from 15 minutes to an hour. Everyone has their own rhythm and cadence – so go what feels right for you. I hope you find this guide below helpful šŸ˜Š
