There are almost as many different ways to learn how to meditate as there are people who meditate.
Even if you're following the same methods as everyone else, chances are that you're doing something different, even if it's only a slight difference.
The good news is that doesn't matter - there's no single "correct" way to meditate.
But here are some easy ways you can learn meditation: Breathing meditation One of the simplest methods available and open to everyone, no matter what their level of experience.
The best way to begin is to get hold of a guided meditation.
This will talk you through the whole process and, as its name suggests, guide the complete meditation process from start to finish.
Guided meditation In a lot of ways, this is very similar to breathing meditation but it's quite often the case that the guiding will move on from just concentrating on your breathing through to other visualizations.
There are lots of guided meditations available on the market and many of these will concentrate on an aspect of your life that you want to achieve or improve on, such as your health.
Binaural Beats meditation This is the modern way to put yourself into a deep meditative state, even if this is the first time you've actually decided to go into a meditative trance.
The binaural beats - which you may not consciously hear as they are normally masked by backing music - work to put your brain into the same state it would take you years to even begin to master by traditional methods alone.
