  I've tried and really like the guided meditations (audio) from https://www.headspace.com/ https://www.headspace.com/ There are some very short ones for free, longer ones cost money

  I listen to guided meditations. They are easy to find online and sometimes only take ~15 min. Here are some of the websites that I use: https://www.tarabrach.com/guided-meditations/ https://www.tarabrach.com/guided-meditations/ http://self-compassion.org/category/exercises/#guided-meditations http://self-compassion.org/category/exercises/#guided-medita... http://www.mindfulselfcompassion.org/meditations_downloads.php http://www.mindfulselfcompassion.org/meditations_downloads.p...

  I recommend The Mind Illuminated by John Yates. It's a brilliant book, see the reviews on amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0990847705/ https://www.amazon.com/dp/0990847705/).

  Ajahn Brahm's guided meditation on YouTube isn't bad, and in fact some of his talks are decent as well (and relaxing). If you can get over a bald, English monk in Australia. There's a logical, rather secular sensibility that appeals to the geek that I am. Helped me through times of personal and work burnout stress.
