Do you meditate?

Only occasionally. I don't know why I don't do it more often, as I find it very helpful. In fact, I think I'll go meditate a bit right now. Thanks for the suggestion.

Yeah! I love to...but I have trouble doing it on my own still and I have to use tapes that walk me through it. Ah well...

Ry, 23

Nope

Deb

Only very very rarely, at karate class.

In the sense of reflection or deep contemplation, yes - often. However, I don't take part in any rigid techniques and there's no mantra involved.

Sometimes I try, but I have a hard time concentrating

Some years ago, I meditated regularly and learned some good relaxation techniques, which these days I mostly use in times of stress.

I pray regularly. I meditate occasionally.

I don't think I can aspire to meditation. I do manage a great deal of contemplation which is basically the same thing, minus the mysticism.

Jill, 60

Not any more. I currently lack the will and concentration to do so.

Felicia, 35

No. I don't have nearly enough patience.

Shanna, 16

Probably not in the conventional sense.

Karen, 21

Yes, I pray and for me that is a time of reflection and renewal.

Janet, 42

Not at all.

Nope.

Tracy, 24
Ocean City
, NJ  USA

No. It never seems to do much for me. Perhaps it's my lack of concentration.

Eric, 19
Beverly Hills
, CA USA

Yes, but not in the traditional sense.

Jaden, 21
Brampton, Ontario  CANADA

Yep. Not in the classical sense---I don't cross my legs and sit bolt-upright and hum "ohm" but I do like to sit in my green comfy chair and let my mind drift into a more spiritual realm. That's how I generally begin my day; by sitting here and thinking deeply upon spirituality and character for about ten minutes.
