How to train your brain to keep you happy and healthy ?

When you are unhappy what do you do? Do you go out for a meal? Go to the movies? Theater, perhaps? Do not go shopping? Maybe you like a drink to overcome your grief. Or you do not get the sensation of jogging or going to the gym?
Whatever now science proves that internal change is the only thing that can give you health and happiness. Everything else is an illusion.

What does that mean?

Your mind is the only thing that can keep you healthy and happy.

Richard Davidson has completed, a neuroscientist at the University of Wisconsin and Jon Kabat Zinn, at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center just some interesting research that can actually be useful for you and me, and the way we manage our lives.

They took a group of 41 stressed, but otherwise healthy, and individuals who are working in the biotechnology company in the state of Wisconsin. Meditation was taught 25. In this case: mindfulness meditation. The group met for 2.5 to 3 hours a class of meditation each week. Six weeks later, she participated in all meditation retreat for seven hours. In addition, each member was asked to meditate at home for an hour a day using guided meditation tape.

The other 16 in the control group and did not receive meditation training until the completion of the study.

At the end of the program for eight weeks, in November, they also provided all participants of a vaccine against influenza. And guess what. "The members of the meditation group had a significant increase in antibody titers" In other words, they are less susceptible to the flu.

The bottom line seems to be. If you want to be in good health and overcome the day-to-day blues and maintain the happiness of learning meditation. Upon reflection you change the way the brain works.

In addition, they found, and meditation the better your performance daily practices.

'' We found that practitioners long showed brain activity
We on a scale never seen before. "Mental practice is having
Have an effect on the brain and exercise in tennis or golf will be able to improve performance.'' It appears that the brain is capable of
Training and physically modified in a way that few people could have imagined.
(Richard Davidson)

So give yourself a space each day to train the brain. Works.
