Mindfulness Meditation and Your EmotionsI have been teaching mindfulness meditation with self hypnosis at my Seattle hypnosis and Bainbridge hypnosis offices since 1997 to help you improve your emotions and your physical and mental health. More and more research is showing the value of mindfulness mediation. Some researchers believe that meditation might even be the key to help ease off dependency on pharmaceutical drugs. Students of all ages report to me that using the mindfulness meditation hypnosis tools that I teach they have improved comprehension, retention, and recall of information leading to improved academic performance. You too can learn hypnosis mindfulness meditation for your physical, mental and emotional well being.

Meditation’s Effects on Emotion
Shown to Persist

PsychCentral, June 23, 2013: Meditation affects a person’s brain function long after the act of meditation is over, according to new research.

“This is the first time meditation training has been shown to affect emotional processing in the brain outside of a meditative state,” said Gaelle Desbordes, Ph.D., a research fellow at the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging at Massachusetts General Hospital and at the Boston University Center for Computational Neuroscience and Neural Technology.

“Overall, these results are consistent with the overarching hypothesis that meditation may result in enduring, beneficial changes in brain function, especially in the area of emotional processing.”

The subjects were able to focus their attention and greatly reduce their emotional reactions. And over an eight-week period, the participants retained this ability.

Even when they were not engaged in a meditative state, their emotional responses were subdued, and they experienced more compassion for others when faced with disturbing images.

“Mindfulness meditation has been reported to enhance numerous mental abilities, including rapid memory recall,” said Catherine Kerr of the Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging and the Osher Research Center, both at HMS.

“Our discovery that mindfulness meditators more quickly adjusted the brain wave that screens out distraction could explain their superior ability to rapidly remember and incorporate new facts.”

Some researchers believe that meditation might be the key to help ease off dependency on pharmaceutical drugs.
