Thanks! A quick followup, how long have you been doing this? And, I guess, are you a generally skeptical person?

Picked up "Search Inside Yourself" on Audible. Looking forward to it!

I'll admit that building the meditation habit is difficult, due not to skepticism (I definitely feel the benefits) but just because meditation is hard. It's much like going to the gym. I'm generally open-minded, not skeptical, but I definitely do explore ideas and "facts" before I come to my own conclusions. I definitely encourage you to try meditation a couple times (the first dozen times will be difficult), keep an open mind, and you will very likely discover the benefits on your own accord.
