How do you choose a mantra?

Last updated: 2026-07-07

There is no single right choice, so pick something that feels calming and easy to repeat. Some people use a traditional sound, others choose a simple word like calm, peace, or ease, or a short phrase that means something to them. It helps if the mantra is short enough to settle into a natural rhythm with your breath. You can always change it if it stops feeling right. StillMind can suggest options and let you keep whichever one quiets your mind best.
