I'm curious to find out how many people on HN actually meditate, given its 'popularity' with media and how it gets attention on HN.<p>Also, where you learnt it from, book, online, zen-center, spiritual guru? The specific type of meditation I'm referring to is the inactive, contemplative state where you focus on breathing and not meditative exercises/practices.<p>Disclosure: I'm thinking of starting a group to travel to a completely remote and secluded Daoist temple in China to stay for a month.
