Shamatha and vipassana meditation help because you can feel the conditioning before it becomes thoughts and actions....I thank my first teacher every day when I practice meditation he introduced me to my meditation teacher!

You can develop qualities of calmness learning shamatha or anapana breath meditation from youtube...but to fully develop breath meditation and insight (vipassana) you need to go to a meditation retreat. All sorts of stuff we have been hiding in our heads may come up and we can get lost in our mind and or think we are enlightened, achieved the bumis...that is where a teacher comes in handy, they are like a guide that pulls us out of our ignorance when we get stuck in the quicksands of bullshit that litter our subconscious/uncounsious, I can never remember which term is the correct one......hahaha
