Good luck!

YES Bare_all!
And I'd also like to add that, if a person finds that sitting meditation is just not for them, there are other ways to accomplish the same thing. For example, there was a book published just a few years ago on "mindfulness yoga". There's also Tai Chi. One could also do mindful walking meditation or even jogging. It's really more a question of how you do it rather than what you do.
