How to Use a Meditation Bracelet: A Beginner’s Guide to Tactile Mindfulness
Meditation can be difficult not because we lack discipline, but because we don’t know where to place our attention. A meditation bracelet is a simple yet powerful tool to anchor your breath, reduce distraction, and stay grounded.
This guide walks you through how to use a coconut bead bracelet step-by-step, plus how to choose the right one for your daily practice.
