What actually happens to your brain when you meditate? This debate explores the neuroscience of meditation, attention, focus, mind-wandering, interoception, exteroception, neuroplasticity, mood, stress and the surprising ways meditation may train the mind.
Discover why getting distracted during meditation isn’t necessarily failure, how bringing your attention back becomes part of the practice, why different meditation styles train attention differently, and how even brief meditation practices can affect the way you think, focus and feel.
