Meditation as a way to improve the entrepreneurial mind

[JaspervR]

Dear fellow entrepreneurs,

With the increase of mindfulness and meditation in our society I think most of us are starting to see the benefits of meditation. Scientifically there's a huge amount of benefits that are ascribed to meditation and I remember hearing Gary Vee say that meditation will be the next big health revolution. Now over the last few years I've become an avid meditator and although it sounds cliché, it's has really made a huge impact on my life. Now I'm trying to introduce meditation to others and especially entrepreneurs who always have a lot on their plate. This post is not meant as self-promotion as I don't have anything yet to promote but I'd first like to do some research and see how other entrepreneurs feel about meditation.

So a few questions:
- Do you already meditate? If you don't, what's holding you back from starting?
- What type of meditation works best for you and what does it help you with?
- What are the biggest obstacles that you encounter when it comes to meditation? Or what are you most struggling with in your meditation practice?

I greatly appreciate you answering and many thanks in advance.
