Want to Learn How to Meditate? Here are 5 Great Resources

Are you ready to learn how to meditate? Here are five resources and tools to explore the wonderful world of meditation.

1. Jenai Lane is a fabulous spiritual coach and mentor to me. I highly recommend her book, Spirit Led Instead.
2. The Best Guide to Meditation Book by Victor N. Davich. This is a book Jenai recommended when I asked her for first-time exposure to mediation.
3. Expanding Your Happiness, Free 21-day Meditation Experience with Deepak and Oprah. This three-week program starts August 11, 2014. Oprah and Deepak offer regular 21-day Meditation Challenges for free and have a number of fee products as well. I have participated in several of their online meditations and have enjoyed the peaceful sense of connection with myself and with so many others during the process.
4. Self-Realization Fellowship, Self-Study Series by Paramahansa Yogananda. As a student of Self-Realization, one receives a number of lessons that are received every two weeks over a period of 3.5 years. This was my entry into spiritual growth back in the early 90s. 
5. ZenHabit's Tips for Meditation Beginners: 20 Practical Tips for Quieting the Mind.
