What Is Meghan Markle's True Secret To Happiness?

From going on a walk to taking a hot shower, there are so many small ways to practice self-care. Meghan Markle’s ritual of choice? Meditation. The Independent recently unearthed one of Meghan’s former blog posts that described the Duchess of Sussex’s relationship with Vedic meditation. While Meghan was still in L.A, the mother of two was introduced to this mindfulness practice by a man named Light in 2015. “Yes, his name is Light,” the former actress joked on her blog “The Tig.” “This is L.A., after all,” (via Marie Claire).

Turning meditation into a daily habit was challenging at first, but soon Meghan began to describe it as the “quietude that rocked my world.” After one year of meditating, she credited this act of self-care as a major contributor to her happiness. The Duchess of Sussex recommended that her blog followers also give it a go. “The worst thing that can happen is that you gave yourself 10 minutes of quiet in an endlessly loud world,” she wrote.

Meghan is also a huge advocate for self-affirmation. In an interview with City TV, she revealed that one piece of advice that she has for all young women is “we just need to be kinder to ourselves, truly.” “If we treated ourselves the way we do our best friend…can you imagine how much better off we would be?” So true, Meghan!
