Take a Deep Breath: The Merits of Meditation
(
http://gimundo.com/news/article/take-a-deep-breath-the-merits-of-meditation/
)
Whenever I hear about the many benefits of
meditation, my determination to find a place for it in my life is
renewed once more. Unfortunately, the few and far between times
I've attempted meditation have always ended in naptime, but I
keep trying because the purported advantages, particularly
increased relaxation, are just too good to pass up. And with
myriad studies that explore the ways it emotionally and
physically shapes our brains, it's clear that meditation's
positive effects span well beyond relaxation. As we learn more
about what meditation can do for us, penciling it into our
schedules becomes not just a good idea, but a necessary one.
It can make you a nicer person.
In 2008, researchers at the University of Wisconsin, Madison
assembled a group of thirty-two people—an equal mix of Tibetan
monks who had been practicing meditation for several years and
people who were inexperienced with meditation (
http://www.divinecaroline.com/article/22189/71317-twenty-meditation-tips-beginners
)—and asked them to perform compassion meditation while their
brains were scanned by MRI machines. The non-practitioners were
given a two-week course on that type of meditation, which
involves consistently focusing on a desire to rid all people of
suffering and unhappiness. The scans revealed a great deal of
activity in the parts of the brain associated with empathy and
emotional responses toward others, and in the monks' brains,
the activity was even more markedly increased, which suggests
that compassion can be learned and developed like any other
skill.
