my internal bias is really towards mindfulness which is a view mindfulness like I would view going to the gym it's just a training tool that often is uncomfortable and oftentimes is unpleasant but it teaches me a tool that I carry with me when I go elsewhere so sometimes I don't want a deadlift but dead lifting makes it easier for me to pick things up when they fall down in my backyard and similarly sometimes I don't want to meditate but the deliberate practice of this ability to observe thought and not react and instead examine it more closely and distance myself from it to see the thought rather than to be the thought that just turns out to be a more valuable tool to being less miserable in my life
