    I delved into it with some true believers of its benefits. I simply could not get my mind relaxed to a place to appreciate it, much less benefit from it.
    However, maybe we have our own forms of it unique to us? I do. I can lock myself up in the dark of the bedroom for 24 hours + with ease. With it comes an inner peace and beauty that to me , is awesome

    It's said that you can get there through long hours of meditation, but who has time for that? No one pays you to sit around and meditate.

    It may not be a question of patience, though. Possibly temperament, personality and thought process.

    I find meditation to be very beneficial. I do it when I go to bed.

    If something stressful happens at work I take a few minutes to meditate.

    If worry is keeping me awake, I will likely not fall asleep until I'm exhausted from the worry. Then I often wake up wondering why I was worried.
