I've never been a spiritual person (open-minded but still rather scientific) and I can't grasp how you change your personality by sitting still for an hour everyday. A small explanation would be really nice
for beginners, meditation is not about staying still but trying to be still (which looks impossible for beginners) and is accompanied with deep heavy mental process on every aspect of you.

if i want to summertime my opinion about meditation and how it has worked for me, i can only say this sentences:

If you have never been raped in your life, you will be badly RAPED by your thoughts in meditation, up until you have nothing to be RAPED.
(by YOU, i don't mean real you, but your EGO).
