This lockdown can be so stressful. Some days are better than others. It is hard keeping track of the days of the week when you are home in lockdown everyday. If you are into meditating, you are in luck. You should actually meditate some more to reduce the lockdown stress and stay on top of your mental health. I have been mediating loads and it has really helped me improve my wellbeing. Meditating is a free way to reduce stress and improve your overall mental health. Since many of us are stuck indoors, meditating some more will do wonders for both the physical and the mental health.
If meditating is new to you and you have no clue how to go about meditating, I would advise you to dig up some YouTube videos on mediating. There are loads on there to help you. You can also read books on meditation and how to meditate if you prefer reading to watching videos or you can combine the two channels and get all the knowledge you need. There are many apps for meditation. My current favourite app is Abide. It is a Christian app and it has completely changed my life for the better. It is a premium app but really affordable. I have tried loads of Apps, and the Abide App is the best by far. The App has meditations for various topics including sleep and very interesting bedtime stories. It is so amazing. You need to try it for yourself to discover how great it is.
Meditating is one gift I am glad to have discovered. If you are struggling with negative emotions during this turbulent season, mediating regularly will help loads. I have quiet times multiple times throughout the day and meditating is a big part of it. It helps me tune in and tune out the noise and negativity going on at the moment.
Do you mediate regularly?
Its groundhog day everyday isn’t it? Yes I meditate regularly and have upped it during lockdown.
I also, use relaxation music on a night to help me sleep. It’s been really useful since my husband passed 2 years ago.
It is certainly helping even more so now. There is guided meditation for sleep or you can use the type which is sounds of the tea/rain forest etc.
Good it is helping you too! It has been a life saver for me.
Hello, that’s great music is helping you, Aww sorry to hear about your husband’s passing😢
This Lockdown is not easy, one day we are on our merry way and the next day we have to remember to wear mask everywhere we go. This is Life changing.
I couldn’t agree with you more. Took up Yoga during this lockdown and the breathing exercises have helped me manage stress. Nice post.
Oh good for you. Stay safe.
Very true, also go on some virtual vacations, look up some places you’ll like to visit 😌
I will try that. Great idea 😊
