“Spirituality Brings Emotional Receptivity”

“And the practice of meditation appears to offer a plethora of benefits. A 2009 study conducted at the University of California in Los Angeles pointed out that specific regions in the brains of long-term meditators were larger and had more gray matter than the brains of individuals in a control group. Since our brains shrink as we age, this finding is of profound importance to a man, or anyone, who wants to stay mentally sharp as they travel through midlife and into old age. …”if practiced regularly and over years, meditation may slow down aging-related brain atrophy, perhaps by positively affecting the immune system.” And we all can agree that an improved immune system is a good thing.”
