I will say, though, that meditation can work wonders, and that it's generally very misunderstood. You can meditate while watching your kids play, meditate while doing the dishes, meditate while doing anything that doesn't require a super-attentive mind. Like anything powerful, to do it well requires real practice, but wow is it ever worth it. Active-minded people really can be in the moment if they practice it enough, and oh is it ever worth it.
