Why are people damaging themselves and also avoiding or rejecting things that could help them like meditation?

Meditation questions
BeiYin asked:
The benefits of meditation are known: Stress release, relaxation, amplifying one’s view, self knowledge, transforming one’s limitations, opening to intuition & new horizons, etc. but only a small minority are practicing meditation regularly and a part of these because their religion demands it. On the other hand established habits are damaging physical and mental health of almost all humans, although it is known that these habits are destructive and not only causing a lot of disease & suffering but also trapping humanity in a numb condition where any growing is blocked.
Why are ways to free oneself are avoided and rejected? Is it that by meditating one would go beyond one’s old habits and find new spaces which give more satisfaction than consuming what ever? Or is it that by meditating one would leave those identifications behind and so transform one’s personality?
That’s the reason why I changed ‘meditation’ into ‘Stress release Exercise’. Visit: falconblanco.org/release

Maybe because those who promote meditation can be pretentious and have a superior attitude. My experience has been with those who are rigid and intolerant of other people’s view.
