No life is perfect, and you're bound to face challenges from time to time. Anything you can do to cope with stress and negativity is fantastic. 

Meditation has been shown to be a very powerful relaxation and de-stressing tool.

When things start to feel overwhelming, it can be helpful and healthy to have a mantra (a word, sound, or phrase you repeat to help you concentrate) or an affirmation (sentences aimed to affect the conscious and subconscious mind in positive ways) to meditate on.

There are many different ways to choose the affirmations you want to meditate on, including using the personal strengths you embody based on your zodiac sign.
