I’d like to know how this information can be applied not to Pathology, but
to peak performance. How can positive psychology use this information to
make people even more happy, more successful.
Thanks for your talk, I enjoyed your explanation and am extremely curious
to see how further tests pan out.
Thank you. I have meditated with zen and mindfulness techniques for endless
years with moderate to little results and struggled horribly to get
anywhere. It wasn’t until I discovered something called the Gurdjieff Work
and S.N. Goenka’s articulation of meditation that I consistently felt that
I was on to something. Sensation is fundamental. The breath is simply a
point of focus to return to. Observing my mind only had me more in my head.
Counting was a nice trick but stopped working early on.
i think your judgmental mentality is your real obstacle.
Mindfulness is a good way to start your day. Very informative video…
Thank you!
That the looks of the presenters dampens your enthusiasm about meditation?
That’s right. Stick to your guns!
This is very similar to what an hypnotist does to ‘hypnotize’ a subject.
I’ve been doing it for years. I find it very interesting. My point still
stands.
I think its wonderful that this research is bringing the West and the East
closer together. I already experienced the effects of meditation but it’s
great to hear scientific evidence supporting what the traditions have been
telling us for centuries. More on topic; I really benefited a lot from
body-meditations such as the ten-points practice that is learned in Tibetan
Buddhism. The body is the ultimate tool to increase our awareness and
ultimately our intuitive intelligence and compassion.
this is short, insightful, n scientific. very helpful, thnx for sharing!
Yea, you probably wouldn’t find it interesting.
If someone is swayed away from meditation simply because a speaker is
boring or looks weird, then they are not ready for meditation. If you would
be more enthusiastic about meditation if some hot chick was doing the
lecture instead, then you sir, are not ready for meditation. It’s like
saying you wouldn’t want Einstein as your professor because he looks
completely out of his mind.
She speaks to be understood, for me that is the peak of eloquence.
Possibly.
Mmm, interestenig: combining the meditation approach with the rationalistic
(De)cartesian approach of science…
Renowned neuroscientist Catherine Kerr speaks about the benefits of
mindfulness meditation for both mind and body.
Mindfulness and the Brain
#Mindfulness Starts With The Body: A View From The #Brain
Really interesting information. Excellent video on brain dynamics as they
relate to mindfulness. Have not heard of this perspective before; added to
what I know from other popular videos about the brain and meditation.

Director of Translational Neuroscience, Contemplative Studies Initiative
Assistant Professor (Research), Department of Family Medicine. Why does
mindfulness meditation begin by focusing on the breath? Does
mindfulness-based somatic awareness (cultivated through attention to
breath, body sensations) change the brain? Catherine Kerr received a B.A.
from Amherst College, and a Ph.D. from the Johns Hopkins University. Before
arriving at Brown, she was at Harvard Medical School where her original
focus was on developing innovative approaches for investigating placebo
effects. Currently, her work focuses on using Magnetoencephalography (MEG)
and other tools to investigate brain mechanisms underlying body-based
attention and healing in mindfulness and other mind-body practices such as
Tai Chi.
Her voice is kinda soothing.
I’m glad to listen this talk, i agree with Catherine Kerr, mindfulness
starts when we can be aware of our body sensations our breath our back, our
legs, up this moment we could pay attention in our thoughts if we’re aware
of how we walk or how we move our arms, So I agree it’s very important to
bring in practice taichi and yoga our everyday life thanks a lot from
Catalonia
Great talk indeed!!! Thank you for uploading and to Catherine for such
great explanation on mindfulness!!!
Informative video on mindfulness and why it helps with depression, etc.
