How To “Think” Yourself To Great Health: Meditation & The “Cell Membrane”

How to Meditate

How do you learn to meditate? In mindfulness meditation, we’re learning how to pay attention to the breath as it goes in and out, and notice when the mind wanders from this task. This practice of returning to the breath builds the muscles of attention and mindfulness.

A Master of Memory in India Credits Meditation for His Brainy Feats

Munishri Ajitchandrasagarji, a Jain monk who captivates audiences with his ability to memorize hundreds of random items in sequence…

The young man sat cross-legged atop a cushioned divan on an ornately decorated stage, surrounded by other Jain monks draped in white cloth. His lip occasionally twitched, his hands lay limp in his lap, and for the most part his eyes were closed. An announcer repeatedly chastised the crowd for making even the slightest noise.

From daybreak until midafternoon, members of the audience approached the stage, one at a time, to show the young monk a random object, pose a math problem, or speak a word or phrase in one of at least six different languages.

The Art of Self-Acceptance

One of Bob Ross’s most famous kernels of wisdom tells us so much about self-love, self-acceptance, and embracing life on life’s terms.

We all learn and grow when we push ourselves to try something new, or to improve on something we’re already good at.
