Advice from Researchers on Meditation - 3 Helpful Tips

8/12/2020

0 Comments

 
Daniel Goleman, a science writer twice nominated for the Pulitzer Prize got together with Richard Davidson, a professor of psychology and psychiatry at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Davidson was one of the first researchers to demonstrate neuroplasticity of the brain — its ability to change in response to new information — and has been researching meditation for years.

They looked at 6,000 published peer-reviewed articles about the benefits of meditation. Together they wrote The Science of Meditation: How to Change Your Brain, Mind and Body.

These are just some of the findings:
  • Benefits emerge in the beginning hours, days, and weeks of meditation. 
  • “Other payoffs for novices are an increased ability to focus, less mind-wandering, and improved memory,” Goleman says.
  • The more hours you meditate over a lifetime, the wider the array of benefits you will notice and the stronger these benefits become.
  • With long-term meditators, there was a lower reactivity to stress as well as lessened inflammation.
  • For those who think they can’t meditate, you may think, ‘Oh, I can’t control my mind,’ but it’s not about controlling your mind. Meditation brings discipline to the mind.

The authors shared this advice:
  1. It is important for novice meditators to have a good teacher.
  2. Go on a retreat where someone can guide you because the data suggests that’s when people make the most measurable progress. “Feedback from a teacher is important because you can get stuck. Even though I’ve meditated for many years, I can still improve” Goleman says.
  3. A few minutes a day is better than nothing. “Ten minutes in the morning, ten at lunch and ten at night is a good way to start,” he suggests.

Money worries, family issues or health problems may remain, but meditation helps many people to work towards creating an unworried mind.
