I've found that many people don't meditate because their experience of meditation is unpleasant and stressful. There are specific difficulties that are sometimes encountered. Generally, that is one of the advantages of working with a good meditation teacher, they can guide you. However, most meditation teachers don't have this full set of distinctions.

Meditation is simple, proven by dozens of scientific studies to be effective, and in my opinion essential for anyone who is interested in improving themselves.

In fact, if you aren't meditating for at least 10 minutes everyday then either of a couple of things is the case:

1) You started meditating at some point but dropped it out. If this is true for you what this means is that you ran into some kind of a problem that interferred with your meditation practice and therefore it would benefit you to troubleshoot your meditation practice find the snarl and unravel it.

Did you realize that a HUGE percentage of the population is
addicted to something?

20.8% of Americans are addicted to cigarretes, and that becomes
29.2% when you include all forms of tobacco and nicotine.

22.9% of Americans report engaging in binge drinking once
per month or more.

8.3% of the population is addicted to illegal drugs according to
the National Survey on Drug Use and Health. That doesn't count
"recreational" users.

10% are addicted to sex.

5.7% are addicted to gambling.

Let alone food, coffee, tv, computer and video games, etc.

A vast amount, if not all effective change work happens like this:

1) Clarify your desired goals.

2) Check for incongruence with achieving your goal.

3) Reframe the incongruence found in step 2.

4) Repeat Step 2 and 3 until there is absolutely zero incongruence. The flip of zero incongruence is CONGRUENCE otherwise known as alignment.

5) Out of your congruence, you will take new actions. You will sort of spontaneously find yourself doing new things in alignment with your goal. If not, this indicates further incongruence to reframe.
