The Science of Meditation

This video aged very well. Meditation has changed my life. It's the best thing I have ever done for myself. I do it twice a day and it's released me from painful human emotions. If you haven't tried it, give it a try for (at least) 10 minutes, twice a day. You'll find you want to do it more and more because it actually makes you feel high in a way that's indescribable. It's a gift you give your soul and I'm so grateful for the many wonderful YouTube channels that have helped heal the hole in my soul. I want you to feel it too, so dear Internet stranger, do it for a month and watch amazing things unfold. ❤

I meditate for 20 minutes 5 days a week and I feel extreme wellbeing during meditation. :)

Great interview! Thank you for sharing this outstanding presentation. This is the best discussion on the evidence-based data around the benefits of meditation that I have found. This totally resonated with me. I just kept nodding my head through the whole session. Now I'm anxious to highlight your content in my project, "Power Not Pain," that I will launch before the end of the year. This concisely illustrates key messages that I want to convey and provides a comfortable insertion point for those who are not, as you say, "woo-woo". I don't believe in coincidence. This was just what I need to hear, exactly when I needed it. I can't wait to explore more of Bob's work, The David Lynch Foundation, and The Aspen Institute. Thank you!

I exercise and Meditate, and I am a Christian and a writer and I love Emma Watson!!!

No one ever mentions Donovan in regard to David Lynch Foundation. He is also a big part of this Foundation.

Nice going, Bob and Perri...both, very fine people...thank you, as well, to everyone who commented...although I disagreed with at least one commenter...you're entitled to your opinion...Season's Greetings and Happy Holidays !!

:3 He showed a video of women who faced severe domestic physical abuse. One even barely wanted to live, started to lose her hair from stress, and meditation gave her a great reset, and her hair started growing back. Some other woman of severe domestic physical abuse was helped, too. Some woman of war with PTSD was helped a lot. A lot of domestic abuse includes alcohol, and many think alcohol is safe. Lol. Most women don't carry pepper spray, since society doesn't really care to make that a habit for young girls. Most women don't know martial arts either (most Americans are fat, and being fat and martial arts are a bit polar opposites, but some fat people do martial arts). Also, marriage is an ownership system, and women didn't have rights until the last century. Plus, many push religious views that you need to stick with a partner through thick and thin, so that encourages violent men to find any woman who believes that so that they will take great punishment. Well, America is massively broken, and most won't even carry pepper spray, or close their eyes for 5 minutes, so I don't expect too much healing there. That's the pill capital. Get stuff done quickly, overly compete with people, and work excessively for a material obsession society. Guns are legal. That makes it a lot easier to kill for anyone who is losing their mind with a gun. Very good reasons to have low hopes, and mock America like I do very often for many years now. But this is interesting to know, since I'm better than the average American, and average person in health (vegan diet, supplementing nutrients for how bad nutrients are for everyone, sleep, meditation, breath work, fasting, herbs, etc.). Average is an insult in the age of a major breakdown.

The sound cuts out in part of it.

I wish I could get the CE5 app!!!!

incredible ...

Inagadda Di Vida!!!!!

Title should be different, doesn't really get into the science that much.

I'm looking for brain scans taken during mediations. I would be grateful for sources or videos

good one

Thanks

Fellow Jewish brother. <3 I'm spiritual, and anti-religion. <3

When I can't sleep, I Meditate to sleep!!!!

😮

peace in the middle east lol dream on

I feel like one needs to be male in order to achieve such meditative mastery. Their larger grey matter had a built- in "Nothing Box" and can easily zone out anywhere, even during serious conversations. (Cheaters..lol) ALL of this drrp consciousness stuff is presented in such a "logical-left brained structure point of view.....I just know that if I stare in a mirror long enough, I start to see myself simultaneously from "outside" myself ...like my higher self observing my lame embarrassing Ego persona.....also, I always tell people about my "malfunctioning- hypersensitive Amygdala" to take the edge off my crazy over-reactive displays....so how funny he mentioned thay exact element....also, I was granted SSI 3 years ago (shamefully) due to PTSD and bipolar disorder severe enough that I cant leave my house for weeks at a time and only for appointments whrn I do. Commenting in public like this us me trying my hardest attempt to socialize. I went through a series of shockingly traumatic events and it just stole something indescribable within....he may havve counseled one of my ex's in the prisons. Even hearing the women's stories is activating my own memory-induced panic switch ..I gotta try and do this right now, thank you.
