Life in these uncertain times can be filled with so much fear, anxiety. and depression. And many of us are looking for ways to help ease our minds.

One of the ways that I help reduce my anxiety issues is meditation, mindfulness, and prayer. (If you have heard of but don’t know much about meditation, go here and read this for a quick breakdown.)

Studies show that meditation can have numerous benefits for both the mind and body. It can reduce stress, improve focus and concentration, lower blood pressure, and promote emotional well-being.

Additionally, meditation has been linked to increased feelings of calm and relaxation, improved sleep, and even decreased symptoms of anxiety and depression. With all of these benefits, it’s no wonder that so many people are being turned on to meditation.

For me, one of the easiest ways to practice meditation is with a meditation app on my phone. I have found several that I think are really helpful.

My Top 5 Recommendations

1. Headspace Meditation App

This app is FREE, but does have the option to subscribe for full access. It provides you with various guided meditations, mindfulness, breathing exercises and more.


2. Calm App
