Mindfulness meditation
This is practiced throughout your lifestyle each and every day. This type of meditation focuses on your thought life. Catch yourself thinking negative things about people and situations. Immediately adjust your thoughts so they are positive and send out love, peace and good fortune to the world around you.
Movement meditation
Yoga is most often associated with movement meditation. Find a good website that shows some simple Yoga positions. As you do each one, breathe deeply, clear your mind, focus on peaceful, happy thoughts.
