Mindfulness Training and the Compassionate Brain

Mindfulness Training and the Compassionate Brain | Mindfulness.com - A Practice | Scoop.it
Meditation cultivates concentration, empathy, and insight at a neural level.
ozziegontang's insight:

In his PT blog The Athlete's Way, Christoper Begland looks at all the recent neuroscience research around mindfulness-mindful attention and non-judgmental awareness; and compassion meditation.  We are learning so much about how the brain is effected by mindfulness and meditation.

 

At the heart of all this research is the realization that Mindfulness is about a practice that one does consistently.
