Have you ever tried to meditate?  If so, you’ll know that it’s difficult because our brains are very skilled at wandering, even when we don’t want them to!  So what do you do?  Many people have succeeded by using voice recordings to help keep them on track.  But there are several things you should know before you buy such a recording.  This post will tell you what you need to know to make sure you choose a recording that helps you meditate easily and successfully.

If you’re looking for an effective audio recording, the best way to ensure you end up with something that helps you meditate is by doing these things:

• Make sure you can preview the track before you buy it.  If you don’t, you might have trouble concentrating.  For example, somebody’s voice might not work for you; the voice might annoy you, the production could be messy or there is music in the background you don’t like.  Any of these things can make you less likely to keep listening.
• This might sound obvious, but ensure your playback device is compatible with the recording so you can actually listen to the track.  For example, audio tapes are still widely available, which is fine if you have a cassette player.  So read carefully.
• Make sure you have a comfortable, safe space to play the track in.  Even the best recording in the world will be wasted if you don’t have a place to enjoy it.
• Don’t listen to the track while you’re driving, especially if you’re tired!

Now that you know a bit more about using meditation recordings, you’re ready to choose the right track for you without worrying that you’re going to waste your money.
