You know that study about 70% of people choosing to get a shock rather than just sit for 20 minutes? I'd make the same choice. Get the shock over with. It will be an experience. I don't blindly avoid pain. I can then do whatever I want, including meditate.

I'm a healthy, robust. If I could volunteered with COVID19 in a quarantined, decadicated space for care, and then have immunity, I think I'd do it.
