Beginner Meditation FAQ
Start with just 3-5 minutes. This is enough to experience the benefits without feeling overwhelmed. As you get more comfortable, you can gradually increase to 10-15 minutes. Consistency is more important than duration.
This is completely normal and expected! Mind wandering is part of the meditation process. When you notice your mind has wandered, simply acknowledge it without judgment and gently return your attention to your breath or the nature sounds.
No special equipment needed! You can meditate sitting in a chair, on a cushion, or even lying down. The key is being comfortable and alert. Just use headphones or speakers for the nature sounds and you're ready to start.
All three sounds work well for beginners. Rain is great for blocking distractions, ocean waves provide a rhythmic focus point, and desert winds offer gentle, spacious calm. Try each one and see which feels most natural to you.
Many beginners notice immediate relaxation after their first session. Regular benefits like reduced stress, better sleep, and improved focus typically develop within 1-2 weeks of consistent practice. Remember, every meditation counts!
