The Meditation You Need to Be Doing Regularly, Based on Your Zodiac Sign

Starting to meditate can be, well, stressful. Our friends at YourTango break it down by zodiac sign to help you find your perfect practice.

Find your zen.

No matter who you are, there's been a time when you feel like you're having a major mental breakdown. Whether it's work, school, family, friends; you've probably had to sit yourself down and say, "pull it together, sister."

We ALL do it: when someone or something is driving you crazy, you take a few deep breaths because it's the only thing that doesn't make you feel like you might explode.

But did you know there's way more to those few deep breaths than you think?

Mindfulness meditation sounds way more intimidating than it is. Basically, it's a way to calm all of those crazy feelings and thoughts in your head and focuses you in on the present, physically and mentally.

It's easy to get caught up in the little things and forget to pay attention to your body, mind, and soul.

There's a meditation for everyone.

Whether you need one that grounds you and reminds you what you're grateful for or one that helps you cool down after a big fight with your boyfriend, taking the time to breathe, think, and be present makes a HUGE difference on your attitude and perspective.

Your zodiac sign can highlight your weaknesses and flaws, which is exactly why finding a meditation, based on your zodiac sign, can help you truly understand what you need to be focusing on in your life.
