Strengthen Spirit… "Meditate profoundly, that the secret of things unseen may be revealed unto you, that you may inhale the sweetness of a spiritual and imperishable fragrance, and that you may acknowledge the truth … so that light may be distinguished from darkness, truth from falsehood, right from wrong,.." – Baha'i Faith

Meditation saved the life of this 15 year old ex-overthinker

Meditation literally rewires the way your brain works. A meditators brain doesn’t work the same as a non meditators brain
What about meditation for spiritual matters? That's my personal struggle
Meditation has changed my life for the better. Could not recommend it enough!
Why Meditation IS rest, a perspective from Affective Neuroscience, which is a bit different from Cognitive neuroscience
And yes, the video is correct about all the benefits of meditation because is emphasizes the affective benefits of the practice, but good and simple explanations count too!
The neurological correlates of relaxation that render affect are ignored in the meditation literature, and for good reason. For to do so would invalidate meditation as a special or unique mental state. For individuals who aren’t academics, meditation is primarily justified for its affective (a feeling of pleasure and avoidance of pain, or tension) rather than behavioral (more effective cognition, changes in brain morphology) results, and it is an established fact that pleasure is mediated by the activation of opioid systems in the brain that are elicited by rest, with no evidence to suggest other causal mechanisms in meditation for reported pleasure. Indeed, the empiric literature in the neuro-psychology on meditation does not account for the affective nature of meditation, and focuses instead on the activity of cortical structures, hence falling under the rubric of cognitive neuroscience. This neglect calls into serious question the explanatory power of current neuro-psychological studies of meditation, which do not address and thus cannot justify rest and meditation as different affective states that have dissimilar causes.

I fucking hate these animated explainer videos
What does "Shocking" have to do with meditation – stupid, corny title
Meditation improved every aspect of my life, it's as close to a 'magic bullet' that we have for mental health. Next step is excercise!
9:41 they wrote mediation instead of meditation. Still good video though
I feel more happy and relaxed
Prevent negative thoughts.
Meditation saves lives!!!
Meditation helps you to make memes
whats those weird lines in the beginning of the video
What should i do , where i live there are plenty dogs that bark a lot. And i usually see people recommending go to a silent place but there is no play to go besides my home );
Awesome video, but man you gotta footnote your sources. I now don't know which is which and have to do work to figure out which one you were talking about and when.
Thought my phone was broken😂
Can meditation increase connecting with your emotions and empathy?
