Boogie practiced meditation one time and now he's a changed man! Meditating is like any other good habit. You have to build your muscles to do it longer and see any benefits. You can't just do it once or twice or even for one week and then stop. You have to keep doing it consistently and sometimes multiple times a day to really feel any benefits from it. Meditating is also really fucking hard, probably one of the hardest habits I've tried practicing.
This SO hard... As a Buddhist of many years (who's NOT okay with tongue sucking children) it's pretty obvious that he is lying. The average person has no idea how hard it is to really sit and be still with your own thoughts for any real period of time, it is INCREDIBLY difficult and basically everyone who is new to it quickly becomes frustrated because it's so counter-intuitive to how our brains usually work. It also isn't something you just click into and remain in for the remainder of your session, it's a CONSTANT effort of returning to the present moment.
I could have maybe believed him if he had just come out and said he was surprised at how challenging something so simple was, and that he didn't do great but will keep at it and slowly improve... ESPECIALLY considering how much anxiety/mental health issues he claims to suffer from, his brain SHOULD be an absolute trainwreck as a total newbie meditator. But not our Boogie, as he is basically an incarnation of the Buddha himself (more like several of them LOL) and somehow managed to pull something off that many still regularly struggle to after literally years of practice.
A sports equivalency for the non-spiritual out there: Steven is essentially saying he went to a baseball diamond, picked up a bat for the first time in his life, and somehow managed to crank out not just a homer on the first pitch but hit them all night long to boot. He doesn't understand this, because like everything else he looks into, it's only on the most surface level for a fleeting moment, he's so ignorant of meditation that he feels comfortable making ridiculous claims like this (much like a child).
P.S. no one buys that you've been regularly practicing anything but eating, steven.
