Staram się ostatnio medytować. Włączam sobie płytę z
treningiem autogennym albo muzyką ayurvedyjską. Efekt jest bardzo przyjemny. Znalazłam informację o badaniach przeprowadzonych na osobach medytujących od długiego czasu i dla porównania przebadano też tych, którzy w ogóle nie medytują. Tutaj streszczenie:
We have studied a number of long-term meditators in previous studies. The purpose of this study was to determine if there are differences in baseline brain function of experienced meditators compared to non-meditators. All subjects were recruited as part of an ongoing study of different meditation practices. We evaluated 12 advanced meditators and 14 non-meditators with cerebral blood flow (CBF) SPECT imaging at rest. Images were analyzed with both region of interest and statistical parametric mapping. The CBF of long-term meditators was significantly higher (p<.05) compared to non-meditators in the prefrontal cortex, parietal cortex, thalamus, putamen, caudate, and midbrain. There was also a significant difference in the thalamic laterality with long-term meditators having greater asymmetry. The observed changes associated with long-term meditation appear in structures that underlie the attention network and also those that relate to emotion and autonomic function.

Twoja wypowiedź odnośnie medytacji jest bardzo ciekawa, aczkolwiek nie jestem pewien w jaką stronę Cię to zaprowadzi. Jeżeli w czasie medytacji będziesz przeżuwać jakiś, problem, jakąś myśl, to chyba niedobrze, jeżeli natomiast to pozwoli w jakiś sposób odpocząć, uwolnić się od myślenia, to chyba dobrze. Grupa badana przez autorów których przytaczasz jest bardzo skromna jak na badania naukowe i chyba nie można na tej podstawie wyciągać jakichś konkretnych wniosków.
