How do you meditate?

[paerol]

I really want to start but I have no idea where to start.

The apps look good but I'm not willing to pay for a subscription!

Is there any options?

My local Buddhist centre is running free classes on their Facebook page.
I used to go to classes which were really helpful. But now I just sit on a chair, get comfy and breathe. Trying to keep my mind gently on the concept of my breath, how it feels moving in and out of my body.

try . its a youtube channel that does guided meditation x

Headspace do a lot of free ones I think. And ACT do some good ones. It helps to practice every day (if you've ever learned an instrument - same logic!)

There are free apps available, Buddhify and Smiling Mind are free.

Download the Headspace app. Some of the sessions are free and if you like it, the full membership is discounted at the moment
