Welcome phelion. 
The world has certainly become more "ramped up" in recent years. Everyone is busier than ever; there are electrical signals bouncing all over the place; everyone is doing everything (as one example, it used to be you had to find a publisher to author a book—now there are literally millions of self-published books). It seems increasingly difficult to stay centered. Things are getting more and more complicated with more and more technologies rolling out daily.
So, not resisting the world and what it is, and finding a way to stay centered in the "storm" is definitely a good thing. Meditation does not have to be done necessarily sitting in lotus position. A form of meditation is to just be in the present with a one-pointed focus, such as walking alone in nature (without talking on a cell phone—I see people all the time in my area who ride their horses while talking on their phones), or doing something creative like painting or composing music where you get lost in it and lose track of the 3D world for a time.
