Since meditation practices have swept the western world, many may come to believe that meditation is a necessary tool for "enlightenment," spiritual growth, or just mental wellbeing.
While we are certainly not here to suggest that there is anything at all remotely wrong with meditation, we find it helpful to explore what a meditation practice can offer, and why people may experience benefits in health and wellbeing.
As the title suggests, neither of us currently engage regularly in any sort of meditation practice, but that's not at all to say we don't have lots of experience! I (Dr. Ben), held a daily practice of 1-2 hours of meditation per day for at least 5 years with experience in multiple traditions and techniques including extended meditation retreats.
In a nutshell, we share our understanding of how and why meditation is not a fundamentally important technique for spiritual growth and wellbeing as well as the evolution of our relationships with mindfulness as a practice.
