Because mediation does not change anything.
They need God, not navel gazing.

mindfulness and meditation focus INWARD.
And it’s not very edifying, since ALL have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God.

Disagree with you on this one metmom. There is sadness, from loss of a family member, the end of a marriage or loss of a job, even felling depressed. And then there is clinical depression which is a chemical imbalance in the brain.
Serotonin , an enzyme in the brain that governs moods is out of balance or is ‘’retaken’’ too fast in brain itself needs to be maintained through medication.
I suffered from this condition some years ago. Thankfully through a good doctor and a medication treatment program I no longer do. My case was different than others but depression is a medical illness.
The Freudian nonsense of breast obsession, mother fixation/sibling rivalry or penis envy as cause of depression is on the order of witchcraft.

Empty is not the same as open.
