Building a consistent meditation habit follows the same principles as any behavior change: start small, attach to an existing habit, create environmental cues, and track your progress. Behavioral scientist BJ Fogg's 'Tiny Habits' framework suggests meditating for just 2 minutes immediately after an existing anchor behavior — brushing teeth, making coffee, sitting down at your desk. James Clear's 'Atomic Habits' emphasizes making the behavior obvious (designated meditation space), attractive (comfortable cushion, pleasant timer), easy (short duration), and satisfying (tracking streak). Research consistently shows that daily meditation for even 5–10 minutes produces greater cumulative benefits than longer but infrequent sessions.
