MEDITATION & MINDFULNESS - THE FACTS

EXCELLENT, very comprehensive and balanced article on the EXPLOSIVE GROWTH in science around mindfulness and the subsequent explosive growth in awareness of the many health and wellness benefits to meditation.

"Today, mindfulness meditation is the practice for which the most convincing body of evidence exists."

"The experts we spoke to agree that, when looking at the science on the benefits of mindfulness meditation, there are three conditions with a strong and convincing body of evidence to support its effects: depression, anxiety, and chronic pain."

"But is meditation’s ubiquity based on rock-solid scientific research? Or are there other factors to thank for its staying power? What exactly is meditation capable of, and should we all be doing it? We spoke to several experts behind the growing body of research on the health effects of meditation to hear more about what the science tells us—and what we have yet to learn."

Healing The Mind

"The dualistic nature of thought is one of the roots of our suffering. Whenever we think of ourselves as separate, fear and attachment arise and we grow constricted, defensive, ambitious, and territorial. To protect the separate self, we push certain things away, and to bolster it, we hold on to other things and identify with them."

"Healing the mind takes place in two ways: In the first, we bring kind attention to the content of our thoughts and learn to redirect them more skillfully through practices of wise reflection. Through mindfulness, we can come to know and let go of the patterns of unhelpful worry and obsession; we can clarify our confusion and release destructive views and opinions. We can reflect on what we most value. Asking the question, Do I love well? is an example of this. When we see unhealthy thoughts, we can learn to direct our thoughts into the skillful states of loving-kindness, respect, and ease of mind. Heart-centered meditation practices help us by using the recitation of positive phrases of kindness and compassion in order to break through old, destructively repetitious patterns of thought."
