Just see it as a time to "declutter" your brain.
Especially working in programming it's been so helpful and basically it will free up new space for inspiration / thoughts / ideas / whatever.
Don't worry about science behind it. Take some good headphones, listen to nature sounds and just try to wind down. There is no magic behind it, you can try hypnosis on YouTube. It is just guiding you to focus on simple things and your brain will relax.
I like to use Thunderspace app or youtube hypnosis or just every hour programming I have 5 minutes sitting outside doing nothing.
That's what meditation means to me, doing nothing :)
So long answer cut short.
If you have your space to relax, wind down the mind then you will naturally be more happy and more productive and inspired.
