Moderately strenuous exercise, about 30 minutes a day, can lead to enormous benefits in terms of your mood, health, weight and the ability to live an independent and fulfilling life. The exercise doesn't need to be athletic or difficult.👍
I would have loved to see a non meditation control group and the neurologist blinded to who did and did not meditate. Then predict who participated with before and after scans.
I have been in severe constant pain for decades. I use meditation to escape it for a little while. (I started meditating in my late teens… is 71). It’s never improved the pain. I can use reading in a similar way and if the pain is no greater than a 6 or 7 I can do it with movies, etc. after it hits an 8 all bets are off.
Meditation does NOT change the brain A bounty of research claims that meditation increases gray matter (preserves aging brains), increases cortical thickness (improves mood), and changes self-control areas in the brain (fights addiction). These studies have not been above reproach, and have been criticized for small sample sizes, inadequate controls, and a failure to be replicated. To address these issues, a well-controlled study of the neurological effect of meditation was recently performed by Kral and colleagues , who found that for short term meditators at least, no structural changes in the brain were demonstrated. The Kral study was unique because it was conducted by true believers in the efficacy of meditation, and admirable that they accepted the fact but did not remark on the implications of their study, which toppled a pillar of the meditation enterprise, that meditation itself could be considered a unique process because of its indirect effects on brain morphology. Of course, they left a final judgement on the neural effects of meditation in abeyance, as they did not consider longer time frames that could indeed demonstrate that meditation builds better brains. Ultimately such a question need not have been answered, as if we conclude that there are no process distinctions between the neuropsychology of relaxation and meditative states, the primary inference would be that relaxation does not build brains, but thinking does, irrespective of whether it is right or wrong.

I’m not sure about that. I can’t say what it does exactly but it has done more for my military ptsd and addiction than anything else I’ve tried, and I’ve tried many things, including natural and synthetic drugs. I don’t have hard scientific evidence, but it does in fact feel like it has changed my brain. Mindfulness meditation literally saved my life. Thank God for mindfulness meditation. Best wishes to you.

This would've been a really good idea.
Sounds like something you could find if you seek the research further back in the day, maybe pre-2000’s
I'm doing the free MBSR program now and the experiments mentioned from the early days are comparative
You can find research papers that covers that. There's tons of them as well as website articles.
Koti koti dil se dhanyawaad namaste❤️
Divine timing! Loved it 🌺
Incredible results! So many benefits from meditation. :)
Thanks for making this episode

Mind and brainwaves are everything we need to master!
It’s a crime that meditation is not taught in school..

Crore of thankyou from heart❤️
The question you forgot to ask was how is your pain now? Any better? Or are u still in bad pain.
Good Job, I wished to thank you appreciate
Buddhism is the human manual. To know better YOU, study it. Meditation is just a thing in many things you have to know if you are human.
Chronic pain and doing deadlifts huh? 🤔
Leveling Vipassna as mindfulness, atleast give credit were it is due.
