Everyone keeps talking about meditation and I try to get into meditation like every year. I've read a couple of books. I have a pirated Headspace course on my phone but I don't really vibe with it, it bores me for some reason. I tried a trial of the Sam Harris meditation app that seemed pretty cool, more theoretical and technical, which appealed to my nerdy side, but the trial is only a week and I haven't figured a way to pirate it. Either way I always end of doing it consistently for a couple of weeks or so and fail to form a habit. What am I doing wrong? What's a good book, program, guided thing or whatever that keeps you going and developing your meditation practice? Maybe the whole meditation thing is overhyped and I shouldn't even bother?
