    Tried meditation the other day and really think this could help me if I manage to make it a real habit

      Mindfulness is basically a super power. I definitely recommend to make meditation a habit.

        Going trough a rough time right now. Some relative told me she started using an app a few months ago. Dom't remember the name

        I simply watched few youtube videos explaining the general concept and tried this one to guide me through the first try. No idea if this is a good video. Probably not truly beneficial to do it only once. But I definitely found myself in a state that was different from the usual depressing stuff.

        I learned mindfulness meditation using the Headspace program called Take 10. It's a great guided meditation program designed to teach meditation to beginners. You just sit and listen to the guided meditation for 10 minutes every day. It's super simple. I think the app is not free but I just downloaded those mp3s on pirate bay. I think this torrent might be the one I used. Check out Insight Timer, it has a bunch of guided meditations. I also like to listen to 10% Happier, which is a podcast about meditation, Buddhism, mindfulness and so on.
