Meditation to Start Your Morning
Get a fresh start, first thing, with an early-morning mindfulness practice.
Meditation can be helpful at any time of the day, but many people find morning meditation most beneficial. The day is fresh and, if you’ve had a good night’s rest, so are you. Adding a mindful practice to you morning sets the tone for your day, experts say.
Meditation and Pranayama coach Gabrielle Marchese says a daybreak ritual gives you time to connect with your own mind and heart, and set intentions for your day, before your attention is pulled in a thousand different directions. Here, she leads a gentle practice intended to leave you feeling focused, invigorated and ready to take on whatever you day has to offer.
