How Do You Actually Meditate?
In today’s lesson, we break down the basics of how to meditate in a simple, accessible way. You’ll learn how to choose a time and place that works for you, find a comfortable position, pick a focus point like the breath or a mantra, and allow your mind to settle—without pressure. We’ll also talk about setting a gentle intention and how even five minutes of practice can be meaningful. The goal is to make meditation feel doable, not perfect.

The Wandering Mind: Why You Can’t “Fail” At Meditation
Today’s lesson dives into one of the most common experiences in meditation—having a wandering mind.

By noticing thoughts without judgment, we strengthen awareness and build patience, both on the cushion and in everyday life. It’s not about stopping the mind—it’s about learning how to relate to it with kindness.
