“I can’t decide which works better for me.
New to meditation and so far have tried guided meditation and meditating in complete silence.
Guided meditation helps me relax.
Silent meditating takes me a while for my mind to calm down and I feel good after.
Which is better for me?”
Silent meditation is better.
In the short-term, guided meditation can be useful for beginners to help build a meditation habit and relax.
Silence is good but complete silence isn’t required to meditate.
Sounds of nature can be calming and relaxing without being distracting.
Silence allows your mind to flow freely and this is what gives you the full benefits of meditating.
