No one knows exactly what being a parent is until they become one themselves. Stories have been told about how amazing yet challenging it can be to be a parent, but you may not understand to what extent until you get there. People prepare for parenting in different ways. For Prince Harry, daily meditation has been his thing nowadays.

The dwellers of Kensington Palace take health and wellness very seriously. For instance, Prince William has been an advocate of mental health programs for a few years now. It seems like his brother is doing something of his own. He has taken on daily meditation as he prepares to be a first-time father. Harry and Meghan recently went for an outing to Birkenhead in Merseyside where they had chats with members of different organizations.

Among those Harry had a chat with was Kelsang Sonam, a Buddhist monk. Harry told the monk that he has started doing daily meditation. When the monk learned about this, he gave him a book titled Eight Steps to Happiness.

The revelation may be shocking to most of you, but it is understandable considering how crucial mediation has been to Meghan. On her website, The TIG, she wrote in detail about meditation. It makes sense that the two would take the practice that seriously. Both have made many big changes in their lives since they let the public know of their engagement in late 2017. Their lies have completely changed within a short time.

Marrying into a royal family can be both fun and challenging. For Meghan, she gave up her career in acting and social media following the engagement. In spite of these challenges, Meghan took on learning new things with poise and grace. Harry, too, had to give up a few things. He loved to party a lot in his 20's, but after his engagement to Meghan, he's become more serious about his life. Harry grew up hunting. His family used to go hunting on Boxing Day every year.

However, with his wife's animal advocacy, he stopped attending the hunting sessions. Meghan has helped him get healthy too. Harry no longer smokes. He's become very active and eats well.

Getting your mind in shape is important. Prince Harry revealed how his past made him struggle with mental issues. He admits his anger and wild behavior were the result of losing his mother at a young age. He wasn't able to handle the emotional aspect of losing a loved one at 12 years old. Harry now admits that he has taken time to focus on self-care. Meghan may have recommended meditation to Harry because it worked well for her.

On The TIG, Meghan says that she was initially overwhelmed by meditation. As time went by, however, she began to enjoy every moment of it. She admits that because of meditation, she is now happier. She understands why some people may not like the idea of mediation at first, but she hopes everyone would create time and try it. Those who feel like they don't have the time for mediation need it twice as much. It has worked for many; it could work for you too.

But you have to give it a chance. People meditate for various reasons. Some do it to have clear minds, to sharpen their attention, or to relax. For Meghan and Harry, it's helping them cope with the challenges of having a baby in the first year of their marriage.

Everyone is eager to see how their dedication to meditation and their desire to stay away from social media will shape their baby's life.

It's been amazing to see how both Meghan and Harry have remained focused on their shared and individual happiness. Isn't this how everyone wants their marriage to be? Enjoying each other's desires and happiness is the key to a healthy marriage.
