I love mindfulness, metta and vipassana. But I'm not sure of what meditation will I stick to. I want all of the benefits of the three. Is that possible?
Any form of meditation that takes you to the higher dimensions of consciousness is a worthy path. Meditation is meant to be a delightful break from the ceaselessly chattering mind. Metta may take you there in the morning and Vipassana might be perfect in the evening. Then you can use Mindfulness for the activities of the day. And you can do all three at once if you are capable of it.
This kind of variety can be a fun and enlivening way to add variety to your practice. However, there is another point of view that recommends sticking with one discipline to really master it.
Beginning with the end in mind, which is inner peace and deeper understanding, then any meditational modality is the perfect one if you achieve this goal.
