This personal meditation checklist is my go-to guide for creating a peaceful, effective meditation practice. It walks me through everything from setting up my space and choosing the right tools, to the actual practice and how to reflect afterwards. It's helped me make meditation a regular part of my day and deepen my practice over time.
