Can meditation be effortless?

How To Rest Within Effortless Presence

All the best1
Yes meditation can be effortless :) let go of the trying to meditate, focus on the in and out breath, then notice sensation in the beginning of the in breath, then the middle of the in breath and then the end of each breath, the same for out breath.
When you are fully aware of the full in and the full out breath the mind get calm and relaxed.
Then be aware of the pauses between the breath :)

Mindfulness makes our eyes, our heart, our non-toothache, the moon,
and the trees deep and beautiful. And when we touch our suffering
with mindfulness, we begin to transform it. Mindfulness is like a mother
holding her baby in her arms and caring for her baby’s pain. When our
pain is held by mindfulness it loses some of its strength. Mindfulness
recognizes what is there, and concentration allows you to be deeply
present with whatever it is. Concentration is the ground of happiness.
If you live twenty-four hours a day in mindfulness
and concentration, one day is a lot.
