I knew that I could not visualize when I was teenager and I am 69 now. I was interested in meditation when I was 18. Tried guided meditation and it was useless. Tried mantra with the same effect. Then I tried watching breaths and I found that this worked. Then transitioned to Vipassana just watching/observing my mind-body. I found this practice to be the best and I still do it today. I have no visual, no audio imagery. I get how my body is feeling and what I'm sensing from the environment and thinking. I am curious what others have experienced.
