Prince Harry’s new daily ritual as he prepares for fatherhood

Many swear by the calming benefits of meditation, and when you have a royal baby on the way, it’s a good idea to add the activity to your daily ritual.

Prince Harry revealed to a Buddhist monk that he meditates every day during a visit to the English town of Birkenhead.

According to the Daily Mail, the monk named Kelsang Sonam presented the Duke with a gift – a copy of his book 8 Steps to Happiness.

It is a known fact that the Duchess of Sussex swears by meditation, as the pregnant royal wrote on her now defunct blog The Tig that since including the breathing exercise into her routine, she had become “just happier”.

“[She said] ‘I’m meditating every day twice a day – it’s wonderful,’” the former actress's meditation teacher Light Watkins told InStyle. “Once in the morning for 20 minutes, once in the afternoon for 20 minutes.”
