I just want to start by saying the "increasing amount of scientific evidence" is still very very low. It's still completely in the realm of acupuncture and cupping. It's still pseudoscience.
That's not to say I'm not very interested by it. I tried meditation for a while, but I've got some sort of ADHD rocking around in there somewhere and struggle to stay still for periods of time. I also can't ever release my mind. Mentally, I can't trick myself into other thoughts. I always got it in martial arts. Doing things that were a big strain, I was told to "feel like I'm floating to take away the pain". My minds like "Lol that's stupid" and I'd just be in agony haha.
