Meditation and the Brain: Scientific Evidence

Close your eyes. Focus on your breath. That is it - that is the practice that is reshaping our understanding of the human brain. Meditation has gone from monastery to mainstream, and neuroscience is the reason. When researchers put experienced meditators into fMRI machines, what they found was startling: meditation does not just make you feel calm. It physically restructures your brain. We are talking measurable, visible changes in brain tissue. The ancient yogis were right - but now we can see exactly how.
