I read an article recentl in the Washington Post about a study teaching subjects to meditate and observe the results in MRIs of the subjects' brains. There were marked changes in the MRIs of the control group. The subjects were taught this to reduce anxiety. The test's author was a Harvard scientist.
It got me to thinking about my faith as a Buddhist as I lie here virtually bedridden with a 20" high Buddha statue ten or so feet away from me and I was thinking I should treat my new normal being in my finished studio garage as a Buddhist retreat and see what I can achieve via this proven method to change your brain as demonstrated by a Harvard neuroscienctist.
Just wondering if anyone else had thought of this or had a similar thought? I have all these Buddhist tapes I can use for meditation aides.
Just wondering. Sorry I've been out of touch for awhile. It's been a trying time.
