Read the Men’s Health article The Thinking Man’s Guide to Meditation for insight into why meditation works…once you get the hang of it.

He’s telling me to take in “any and all sensations, moment by moment” that I feel in my feet. I register the nubby texture of the rug, a slight numbness in my left toes. This is easy. I can do this. My eyes rest on a dark smear by the window, where the pane meets the sill. Could be mold. Is moisture getting in? How old are these windows? Twenty years at least. Yeah, Karl was learning to walk… Crap. Meditation is hard.
