If sitting meditation doesn't work for you, there's walking meditation, Qigong, body scans.

Really it's just about finding your breath and your body and settling into the present and sitting meditation is just a tool to teach us how to do that.

The meme is shit by the way.

The idea isn't to build up tension all day and then let it go when you finally get to the cushion. The idea is to learn to let go on the cushion so all day you can let shit go.

That's why we call meditation practice. It's so we can implement it in the moment when we need it.
