I have never had a bad experience with meditation. I only recommend that you be dressed comfortably and find an appropirate setting. Once you get good at it you will be able to meditate almost anywhere even around common distractions.

I have meditated for over 14 years & have never had a bad experience. The ego doesn't like it. Because the ego is not the truth of yourself. I learned to meditate by counting breaths. For a few months a person needs a method. Good Luck. If you do this it will be the most important thing you have ever done.

Buddhist meditaion. Keep in mind it's not just about sitting cross legged and breathing, meditaion is active, mindful and contemplative. The point is to observe phenomena in real-time and see for yourself that there is no soul, all is impermanent.
It will be a bad experience when you have no idea what to expect.

I love it every time it totally relaxes you in a state I can't explain. I start with relaxing each muscle starting from my feet and go up to my legs and then my abdomen and then my arms and while i'm doing that I concentrate on taking slow deep breaths each time I relax a muscle and after every muscle is relaxed you just stay in that position and think about relaxing scenes and imagine yourself there. for as long as you like

crossing legs in a peaceful, quiet place with some relaxing and soothing music; sleeping; praying to God; self visualising of a beautiful place in my head, and some other things that I wouldn't want some people to hear.

Do not be ritualistic! Whatever works for you, works for you.
