The host and podcast Tim Ferriss can be found on most podcast platforms. Recently, he’s put out a Zen meditation series that I recommend checking out if you’re a new meditator.

I use this timer because the bowl’s resonance feels gentle and authentic https://insighttimer.com/meditation-timer What type of meditation timer do you use? There’s no wrong answers here.

For many meditators, the actual meditation isn’t the hard part. The hard part is making it part of your routine. This can prove even more difficult if you work a lot, are recovering at home, have children to care for, and so on. Even though I learned several types of meditation and have been practicing for several years, I still struggle to commit to the cushion some days. It's difficult not to feel disappointed in myself. What I find helps me most is incorporating meditation into my daily routine. I chose the morning. Here’s what it looks like for me: - Get up, - Get dressed, - Take the dog out, - Feed pets, - Make my tea - Quick stretch - Sit with my tea in my spot (dining table) - 5 to 20 minutes of meditation - Write or reflect for a few minutes - Brush teeth, - Walk the dog, - Eat, - Head to work See how I snuck that in there? Now meditation feels as natural as brushing my teeth. The key was finding the spot where it fit into my day — not forcing it, but letting it become part of the flow. Everyone’s rhythm is different. It begins with asking yourself: Where can I fit a pause naturally into my day?

I’m creating a 5 day meditation module. I have a regular job as well so it may take 5 days to create and upload to our classroom. I’m hoping this will be helpful to some people. It’s challenging to know what will help in new Skool communities. 🤞🤞🤞
