Hey,
Cool post, I have started to meditate about 2 weeks ago and find it very relaxing and calming. It is certainly something that I should have incorporated into my life much sooner.
I use an app called Headspace though, find it great and the voice of Andy (the guide) very soothing.
He has a great way of explaining what to do with all those pesky thoughts :-)
Looking forward to more of your posts!
Have a nice day!
