Do You Meditate?

I remember being taught years ago how to meditate. I learned in an Abnormal Personality class in college. I didn't really get the hang of it. At that time I felt it was a waste of time.
Now that I think back I wish I had listened more closely. I think it might have helped lessen my stress. You never know.
I have however learned how to sit quietly, close my eyes and stop my mind from racing so. I would guess it is a form of meditation.
Did you ever learn how to meditate?

The way I meditate is by taking time to delve more deeply into a question, a problem or an issue. If I'm stressed then I may listen to some music, go for a walk, dance, exercise or watch a good movie.

@db20747 I usually use prayer and the Bible in my meditation. My delving leads to a solution which will get rid of the cause of stress. Maybe not everybody does it the same way?

I do try to meditate. Yet I do not follow any formal approach. I just try to do in my own way.

Anyone who knows me well knows that meditation is not exactly in my vocabulary 
. My gears are always running - which is maybe why I don't sleep through most nights. I did find that when I did certain physical activities (like figure skating or dance), I could actually "let go" for the moment.
