Guided Meditations

Guided meditations can be a way of practising mindfulness. Practising mindfulness can be an opportunity for people to process their lives and notice what may be affecting them in a positive or negative way

WHY has created some introductory guided meditations around different themes to support a mindset of growth. Guided meditations have been shown to support in living a healthy lifestyle by encouraging health enhancing behaviours. Furthermore, they can be a helpful tool for managing some medical conditions such as pain, stress, anxiety and depression.

WHY guided meditations could be good for you because:

• Meditation can be difficult for people to practise and it's important to know there's no one right way

• To practise meditation you may need to develop a routine that works for you. This is what some experts say here

• Starting a day with guided meditation can help people prepare themselves for what's to come

• Finishing the day with guided meditations can help people prepare themselves for a restful nights sleep

• At difficult moments in the day guided meditations can help people to focus on what's important
