Men will do anything but fucking meditate, won't they?

I have never had success with meditation alone. My brain is like a bumblebee swarm in a beach ball.

I enjoy guided meditation if the leader is soft spoken and knows what they’re doing!

One of the important things in many kinds of meditation is it's not about stopping the bees, but noticing them.

I remember hearing about some Buddhist monk who was famed for his meditation. Someone asked him how long he could sit before his mind wandered "oh about seven seconds normally". He just got very good at noticing when his mind wandered and trying again.
