Conditions in a monastery and in the real life

Hello, I have watched many videos about meditation or just basically about buddhism. I know that when a Lama teaches lay people meditation, he always says that they should be gentle to their bodies and minds and just enjoy the meditation. But when I read about experiences in monasteries, people often says that there are very hard conditions and it's very hard to stay there for a long time.

What do you think? Should be one gentle to oneself or just take it as a kind of duty (meditating)?
