Help Your Brain With Meditation
Dear Reader,
When the hustle and bustle of life has you stressed until you're sure you can't take another thing it's hard to keep your mind on track, to keep the pressure from boiling over. It's here that meditation can be so very beneficial, and many experts are finding it might be a smart move to teach your brain to focus on something simple... as simple as the breath going in and out of your body... which is a part of mindfulness meditation.
There's a new bit of research appearing in the
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on the latest project in an emerging area of research that looks at how meditation interacts with the brain. Known as contemplative neuroscience, there has been work in this area over the last ten years by the University of Wisconsin's Richard Davidson, a trained psychologist, suggesting that our brains, like our muscles, can be permanently strengthened with meditation.
Those who are experienced in the practice of meditation have less
activity in the default mode network of the brain when not engaged in a focused thought. The brain's default mode network is linked to introspection and a wandering mind. It's typical that drifting thoughts tend to go to negative topics, and this is the source of more stress and anxiety. This behavior of the brain has also been linked to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and Alzheimer's disease.
The team examined both experienced meditators and trained beginners, 12 subjects who
had over 10,000 hours of mindfulness meditation and 12 healthy volunteers who were beginners at the practice. Each subject was told to try three types of meditation, concentration (attention to breath), love and kindness (wishing all beings well and choiceless awareness (focus on whatever comes up). Experts looked at brain activity during the meditation using functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Help Your Brain With Meditation Continued...
For all the meditations, experienced meditators had less action in the default mode network than the novices, and reported less mind wandering. These subjects also showed more connectivity between some brain networks during both meditation and non-meditative states. So no matter what these meditators do, they have a changed default mode network. This suggests that these people are paying a lot more attention than others.
This one study isn't proof that meditating is helpful to the brain, but looked at with other research showing the positive impact of mindfulness training for problems like depression, substance abuse, anxiety and pain, it holds lots of promise, and a good suggestion for those facing lots of stress. Meditation may be very helpful.
The research also doesn't address the question - is meditation changing our brain or do those who have those brain patterns inborn also have an interest in
meditation? It may be that some things researchers have attributed as a result of meditation might actually be the cause. Some people may be naturally better at keeping their minds focused to keep them from wandering and settling on negatively charged, stress inducing topics.
In the future, if MRI scanners were ever available enough, practitioners could test to see who might benefit from meditation.
To your good health,
