Description
Even though mindfulness meditation has been practiced in the east for centuries, it's only really been looked at in the west since the 70s. With a resurgence in popularity for taking care of oneself from within, mindfulness meditation is finally catching on in the west. Since it's gaining popularity, naturally you probably have a few questions about it.
What is Mindfulness Meditation?
Mindfulness meditation is the act of meditating by focusing on your surroundings. It is a practice that keeps you in the now and aware of your mind, body, and soul. A quick exercise is to press your toes firmly against your shoe or the floor. Focus entirely on the feelings you're experiencing. There are more in-depth guides to doing full-on mindfulness meditation, this is just a very small example.
What Does it do to Your Brain?
Even though practices such as mindfulness meditation, yoga, and other similar practices have been gaining ground, there are still plenty of skeptics out there. After a mere eight-week course, MRI scans showed that practitioners of this had their amygdala shrink. This is the part of your brain that controls the 'fight or flight' response, fear, and emotion. It also tells your body when to be stressed.
The pre-frontal cortex, which is most commonly associated with 'higher thinking' functions such as decision-making, concentration, and awareness grew. Tons of research and studies are still being done, so check out news surrounding mindfulness meditation for some truly mind-blowing science!
What's the Difference Between Mindfulness and Meditation?
Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, who has studied mindfulness for over three decades, has come out saying that when you practice mindfulness, you're actually meditating. This is because mindfulness is awareness. It's something that people don't' usually take the time to practice. However, when you devote concrete time (usually about 20 minutes), to awareness, you are in fact meditating.
