Luckily, we\u2019ve found mindfulness meditation techniques from some of the top experts in the industry. Here are five practical tips to help you gain the positive effects of meditation from a psychiatrist, a meditation teacher, and a neurologist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Focus on your breath. <\/strong>It doesn\u2019t matter if you\u2019ve been meditating for 20 years or 2 minutes\u2013your mind will wander. The trick to keeping your focus is using your breath as an anchor. \u201cAny time you notice your mind has wandered, take a deep breath and really pay attention to the feeling of it, then re-focus on the meditation,\u201d notes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rachaelkable.com\/blog\/tips-to-help-you-meditate-better\">Rachael Kable<\/a>, a meditation and mindfulness teacher with a bachelor&#8217;s degree in Psychological Science.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>Think of meditation like an ocean.<\/strong> If you\u2019re having trouble meditating, try this visualization. Dr. Datta describes how <a href=\"https:\/\/www.docdattamd.org\/meditation-dreams\/\">wind<\/a> (your daily life stressors) will always blow at the ocean\u2019s surface, creating choppy waves\u2013a stress response. However, if you sink deeper into the ocean (close your eyes and slow down breathing), you won\u2019t hear the wind or notice the waves under the water. \u201cEventually we arrive at a calm and still place that is different from the frenetic waves on the surface,\u201d says Datta.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong>Have a dedicated meditation space.<\/strong> It\u2019s human nature to thrive in a routine. And that includes where you meditate. \u201cCreating a specific location for meditation can help get the body and mind ready for meditation, making it easier to drop into your routine,\u201d says <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drperlmutter.com\/disconnection-syndrome\/mindfulness-and-meditation\/\">Dr. Perlmutter, MD<\/a>, a Board-Certified Neurologist. Set up a cozy space in your room, in front of the fireplace, or on the couch. Wherever it is, make sure you can return to that location each time you meditate.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong>Set realistic goals.<\/strong> Saying you\u2019ll meditate for 1 hour every night might be a stretch for a beginner. Set goals with shorter time frames and build on them as you go. \u201cStart with 2 minute meditations. Once that feels comfortable, increase your sessions to 5 minutes. Then 10 minutes,\u201d says <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rachaelkable.com\/blog\/tips-to-help-you-meditate-better\">Kable<\/a>. Start slow\u2013practice makes perfect.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><strong>Try meditating on the go.<\/strong> Anxiety knows no bounds. But it\u2019s possible to meditate anywhere. If you\u2019re feeling anxious while out and about, turn your focus inward. \u201cThis practice can be done anytime you\u2019re walking around\u2014simply focus on the act of walking, the feeling of taking each step, the sensations of lifting up your feet and the wind moving past your skin,\u201d notes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drperlmutter.com\/disconnection-syndrome\/mindfulness-and-meditation\/\">Perlmutter<\/a>. You can meditate on the bus, at your desk, and in the grocery store; your mental state is the biggest factor. You name the place and meditation is possible.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of Meditation for Anxiety<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Meditation doesn\u2019t just come in one form.

Let\u2019s take a look at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/tests-procedures\/meditation\/in-depth\/meditation\/art-20045858\">types of meditation<\/a> to ease anxiety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Body Scan Meditation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A body scan meditation involves systematically scanning your body from head to toe, slowly bringing awareness to physical sensations in each part along the way. Imagine each part of your body lighting up as you focus on it for a minute or two. This practice helps move your attention from feelings of anxiety toward bringing awareness to your body in the here and now.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Guided Meditation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Guided meditations are typically led by an instructor either during a live yoga class, meditation group, or through a video or audio recording.

Your meditation guide will ask you to imagine vibrant colors, breathtaking scenery, or scents that evoke inner peace at your location of choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mantra Meditation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Meditations don&#8217;t have to be silent. For this type of meditation, you use a word or phrase to attach peace to. Essentially, you say your chosen word repeatedly when you\u2019re anxious\u2013as a mantra. This mantra is a focus anchor used as a distraction from your stressors. Some example mantras are: I am okay, I can get through this, I am at peace, and I am calm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Need Help Now?
