nightdiamond,

I would say I want a bit of both.

I agree that playing the piano can be very meditative if I'm in the right mindset, but practice really isn't that time, or at least not for a long time at once. Mostly it's because of how much work it takes to actually master the dificult parts of a piece, and I find it hard to be meditative when I'm working on that. Maybe it is possible, though
.

You're welcome pianoperformer...

I've read about people who have had special experiences while doing certain things they're absorbed in, like wolfgang's experience, this is worth considering..


I think there's a good solution for this problem, but first can you tell us want do you want from meditating? What result would you like to experience as a result from meditating?

I know we're getting back to the goal part, but answering this can good step towards giving you the motivation to meditate regularly, and find a good way for you to meditate while doing the things you like, like playing the piano....
