I've struggled so much to make it a routine for that reason of "I couldn't calm my brain down while meditating"

I might try in May to meditate everyday and stick with it this time

I find it to be a cumulative effect. The more I regularly meditate, the more calm my mind tends to be while I'm meditating.

If I stop for a while, it goes back to being all over the place and takes days/weeks for it to calm down again.

Yeah I think I read / heard somewhere to tackle it like it's training which I think was point that I was thinking "oh I should give this a go again"

I always think of the study that people did with monks who meditate a lot.

They hooked them up to brain scan machines, let the meditate, and then fired a gun next to the monks and they could see that there was no spike in brain activity because they were so deep in meditation.

There's no way I'm ever getting there, but it's definitely like a muscle that you can strengthen over time the more you exercise/practice.
