So I have tried to find a perfect meditation app and  I can't find one that doesn't cost money. I have tried  using my sleep app for noises in the background and  that disrupts me. I have found sitting outside for 10 minutes just focusing  on the sounds of nature helps me relax. So what I do,  I don't sit with my legs crossed or feet together,  I don't have a yoga mat, I don't even shut my eyes! I literally sit in a chair and block out thoughts and just  listen to nature. I then every night before bed take  60 seconds to focus on my breathing.  Now if you can fit in 3 times a day just listening to nature,  this could help relax you. Are you willing to try it?
