What meditation does is it allows us to be able to tap into the [part of the brain] that we're not using.
Have you ever wondered how meditation could change your life? In this episode of 'Safe Recovery', host Monica Richardson sits down with meditation expert George Quant. This engaging conversation, originally recorded in May 2011, dives into the transformative power of meditation, especially as an alternative to drug use. George shares how meditation can help you access parts of your brain that often lie dormant, leading to better focus and a profound sense of peace.
He also discusses the history of meditation and its unique relationship with addiction recovery. One fascinating point George makes is about the brain states during meditation and how they mimic the natural highs that drugs aim to achieve. He even cites studies showing that the same neuropeptides released during drug use are also released through meditation. However, George acknowledges that Transcendental Meditation (TM) can be pricey and out of reach for many.
To counter this, he offers guided meditation sessions and classes on a donation basis, making this powerful practice accessible to more people. Throughout the episode, George emphasizes the importance of self-talk and self-belief. He explains that if you think you're broken, you'll act accordingly. By changing your mindset, you can influence your neurological and immune systems positively. This episode is packed with insights on how meditation can be a powerful tool for achieving focus and inner peace.
It's a must-listen for anyone interested in alternative healing methods.
