When you think of meditation what comes to mind immediately is getting away from your busy schedule for a few minutes or an hour and switching off your mind completely - except focusing on your breath. Truth is, even if you manage to extricate yourself from your schedule you feel that you will not be able to focus at all, without which meditation may not be possible.

It may seem too tough but meditation can be an easy process which you can gradually build into your schedule. The good thing is that various free resources that you can use on your smartphone or computer make it possible to enjoy the benefits of meditation.

The first is a free app called Calm that plays a new meditation session for you each time. There is a ton of variety in the music that is provided for you to go into a state of meditation. The shortest session is only two minutes so if you a short of time it will be really handy to use this short session. Most of then are about ten to twelve minutes in length. Although the free version is sufficient for your needs, buing the paid version will give you a larger variety and a new calm meditation session every day.

White Noise Generator features as the Editor's Choice in the Android Playstore and gives you sounds of nature like the sound of rain, thunder, beach and ocean sounds, night sounds or just a plain whirring fan sound. This is for those who get distracted easily by various sounds in their environment. Nature sounds are known to be very calming and can put you into a deep state of meditation very easily.

If you want access to all the different meditations you need to pay for it, but the free version is enough for the purpose of starting your meditation journey. The sounds of the narrators are also very calming and will lead you to good meditation sessions.

Relax With Andrew Johnson is also an app that helps you meditate. Andrew has an amazing voice and assists you've with relaxing your entire body before putting your mind into a deep sense of calm. Many people use this app for not only helping with meditation but for pain relief since it is so effective.

If you would like a large variety of meditation sessions to choose from the best place to look for is YouTube. It's the place where I started, choosing short ten minute guided meditations and then extending it to thirty minutes every day. There are all kinds of meditation sessions available on the site, some by professionals and others by individuals who have composed their own videos with background Instrumentals to help you Meditate.

The benefits that meditation offers are quite limitless. If you would like positive changes to happen to your mind, and reduce stress and anxiety, you must give meditation a try.
