@AmarisBane I have read a couple of beginner books that I have listed in this session of the book club, @Janae_Rochele you can see them too if you would like as a refresher. I chose 2 weeks for each chakra because of things I have sorted through & anxiety & blah, blah, blahā¦ plus I use Insight Timer & Iām doing a āchallengeā there called āFrom Surviving to Thrivingā in the groupsā section (the challenge is also free in May because it is Mental Health Awareness Month) & after the challenge part (they are over 15 minutes but under 20 minutes the last 5 minutes being a meditation) I do a root chakra meditation from the same app & I have used another meditation for my root chakraā¦ as soon as I go through my history I will link it 
I also incorporate crystals into my energy work or chakras. I choose 1 crystal to work with each week from my oracle deck & then I use crystals that associate with the energy of my chakras & hold them in my hands with clear quartz during chakra meditations. I keep those crystals on my nightstand each day.
I also have a love of writing/journaling 
. I journal about my day & sometimes free write an email to no one or a letter to someone but they never get sentā¦ I delete them when I am ready or I burn them in my fire pit to release those feelings I just put on paper. I actually just got a newer journal that has a raven on the front. Itās very calming to me to write it out while Iām thinking about it. I havenāt tried it after meditating. Right now I am working on doing it each day before I fall asleep, but depending on the day that can be a sporadic occurrence 
I have a library of journals, I like to get the leather-bound ones with an image pressed in the leatherā¦ I usually get them from Etsy & Lohman Trading there. They have a lot of nice ones that I like. I will have to try it after meditating one day.
I tend to meditate a couple of times a day. The morning is usually the challenge & chakra then I do either a chakra or meet with my deity meditation. Which is the Morrigan 
& Brighid 
& @SilverBear just created my new go-to meditation for meeting the Morrigan called The Morrigan - Transformation Meditation. I work with Brighid 
when for guidance & healing even when the Morrigan 
is with me & also giving me a guiding hand.
@HollyGray & @Jeannie1 I think from what I have learned about yoga poses & energyā¦ there are some poses that I can do without causing myself too much pain. I have been thinking about trying it to help with meditation while holding the pose & breathing. I actually came across a section of my books that shows different yoga poses & how to do them. So I think this coming week I will start with easier posesā¦ donāt want my body going into shockā¦ 
I also would say that yoga is a form of meditation because you hold the pose, breath, focus, & then release the pose. You are focusing your breath & body into a relaxed state with smooth energy flow. I believe that constitutes a form of meditation
