Meditation is anything that helps to quiet your mind. Brief breaks and mindless staring through the office window counts too! So the broader question is - what helps to quiet the mind? For me it's brief "diving out" of a rat race and enjoying something. That something could be vastly different from day to day.

Does mindlessly staring through the office window really calm your mind? I would imagine that's when day dreaming and other thoughts creep in.
