Meditation is an ancient tradition with roots in Buddhism and Taoism that teaches the calming of your mind to focus on what you need or want in any moment of your life. If you meditate regularly, it can help you learn to calm your mind, but it can help you reduce symptoms of stress, anxiety, depression, and chronic pain.1 While originally a religious or spiritual tradition, meditation has experienced growth into secular practices and has become very popular in the world of apps.
