Otsikko: Meditation and gyrification (poimuttuminen?) of cortex! Kirjoitti: sideman - 15.03.2012 23:24:59 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/306390
Eileen Luders, an assistant professor at the UCLA Laboratory of Neuro Imaging, and colleagues, have found that long-term meditators have larger amounts of gyrification ("folding" of the cortex, which may allow the brain to process information faster) than people who do not meditate. Further, a direct correlation was found between the amount of gyrification and the number of meditation years, possibly providing further proof of the brain's neuroplasticity, or ability to adapt to environmental changes. Nyt kaikki vipassaanaa, mindfulness'ia tai jotain muuta helposti opittavaa meditaation muotoa harrastamaan! (Transsendenttinen meditaatio lienisi useimmille yksi nopeimmin ja helpoimmin opittavista , mutta se taitaisi rasittaa valtaosan budgettia liian kanssa...) ::) |
