It's a nice time to remember there are many types of meditation, and to know your goal of meditating, which can range from being more calm or peaceful, to enlightenment or connection with God. In terms of types of meditations, some are more active and dynamic. One of the easiest and most blissful is kirtan, which is chanting in a group, usually with some instruments/music. It can be helpful to perform a more active meditation first in order to settle the mind, after which a still meditation can be more fruitful.
