2021 Meditation Apps increase Wellness

Let’s face it, 2021 is the year where we rebound from the stress of 2020. With so much going on, now is the time to focus on self-care and kick off that meditation practice. Just 10 minutes a day can literally make a huge difference.

Meditation can Transform your Perception

A few years ago, I started a 10-minute meditation practice based on gratitude. I focused on listing the things I was most grateful for in my morning mantra. I’d sit on my meditation pillow and speak aloud everything I was most grateful for.

Each week I’d explore the relationships- people related or topic-related- I was most concerned with.

For instance, the first week, I expressed gratitude for the people I love. Every day I’d choose one person and state aloud the qualities I most admired about this person and my fondest memories.

The following week, I tackled time. I’d speak aloud that I had all the time in the world and what that afforded me. These were all aspirational statements and after speaking this aloud, I was able to tap into this energy when I felt hurried.

Meditation pivoted my perception and so we wanted to share a few that might help you with yours.

I chose this app as #1 because the discovery phase and the sign up were stress free without being nudged for a  credit card.

Registration is free and you can listen to several of these talks on the site without interruption.

30 Day trials are supported then there is a fee but the fee isn’t presented right away so you do have time to explore before making the commitment to input your credit card.
