In the world we live in, it can be hard to find peace on a day to day basis.

The stress of work, school or college can wind the best of us up into an absolute frenzie.

Meditation has been around for centuries; but smartphones and tablets are only relatively new in our world.

However, these apps mix the old with the new for our benefit. And guess what? They're all free too.

Prepare to become a whole new, chilled out person after you try these meditation apps.
