While seeing a wellness coach such as Carol McFadden is the preferable option if you need to get your life in order, it is no secret that everyday stress can hinder this. Here, the renowned herbalist and mindfulness specialist gives a basic grounding to meditation that you can practice at home.

Following standard yogic breathing, Carol talks you through a series of visualisations designed to give you a sense of calm, and take you away from the things troubling you. This is set to a backdrop of natural wave sounds, with the ebb and flow further enhancing the tranquillity you will feel.
