Indeed, but the word means so many things these days and they all sort of miss the point from my perspective.

I stayed for six months in an ashram [1] way out in the middle of nowhere, I'm sure that helped a lot.

It takes more time in the beginning, time for the mind to wind down, time to figure out which way is up, we did 4h sessions every morning in the ashram and 1h sessions regularly during the day.

But every step in that direction; I feel that regular practice is more important; and quality over quantity, 5 minutes of awareness is worth more than sitting for 1h with your eyes closed and worrying about this and that.
