Do you practice any form of meditation?

I practiced and studied Zen meditation in many periods of my life, and it helped me immensely.

I find it's philosophy reasonable and compelling: the basic idea of simply doing what's in front of you. If you have to do the dishes, do the dishes and nothing else. Be full in the act of doing the dishes.

Zen writing and meditation reduce my anxiety by helping me look at life in a more positive and expontaneous way. Paradoxically, worrying less about results usually gets much better results.

With that said, I ask:

Do you practice any form of meditation? Which one?

What was your initial purpose for practicing meditation?

Are you still doing it? Why?

Do you study the philosophical, scientifical or religious aspects behind your practice?
