Lady Gaga and meditation

I was quite blown away by the depth of Lady Gaga in her interview with Ellen. She tells the audience she does Bikram yoga and her teacher suggested that she spend 15 minutes per day meditating and thinking compassionate thoughts about herself. Lady Gaga admits to only meditating for five minutes because 15 minutes would drive her "mental" but what a wonderful way to start your day.

It's one thing thinking compassionate thoughts of others but if we cannot love and accept ourselves, then why would anyone else love and accept us?
