Another great well gift for those with anxiety is a mindful activity that can help distract the mind such as a wellness workbook or jigsaw puzzle.

How do beginners start meditating?
As a beginner to meditation, the idea of it may seem daunting at first but there are a few simple steps you can take to beginning your practice. For your first meditation session we recommend you sit alone in a quiet place where you will not be disturbed and get comfortable. For the seating position, you can choose to either lie down on your bed or yoga mat or sit in a cross-legged position on the floor, using a meditation cushion for added support if you wish. Once you're settled in your position, simply close your eyes and take slow deep breaths in and out - the key to successful meditation is to focus on your breathing and clear your mind of any thoughts except 'breathe in' and 'breathe out'. For your first session as a beginner we recommend attempting this breathing exercise for 10 minutes. Browse through our collection of meditation books for further advice.
