Many if not most of the meditation methods incorporate focusing on your breathing. That function (breathing) is one of the few functions of our bodies that is beeing controlled both by our conscious mind ( holding your breath) and our automatic part of our brains. There is a theory stating that through focusing on this function we guide our conscious mind in to the unconscious and automated part of our brains and in time we can make changes in a conscious way to these autonomous functions like pain sensing, digestion, temperature control ( homeostasis), heart beat, you name it we might be able to do it. In support of this, like the good doctor said, there's a notable pfisical change in the pre frontal cortex, that might just be the additional neuropathways, connections and additional neurons for consciously processing all those signals involving the "hoodoo" we are doing with our bodies and minds! Great episode!

If your mind is worried, jumping around, reacting to everything and anything without a filter and making no effort to really think consistently about anything, you can't function normally. Meditation can help you to control your moods, mind, and your life.

@@seyaresmati7320 ironic that they’re worried about you more than you are worried about you. There’s nothing to worry about, except worry itself. Anything I’ve ever worried about was born out of a society bent on creating unnecessary anxiety pertaining to issues that are ultimately irrelevant. Am I doing my job well enough? What if I get fired for oversleeping? For being late due to a previous car accident? Am I going to succeed in life? What if I don’t? As you can see, most of my personal worries revolve around money. But not so much money, as being able to eat, stay warm and dry, and be safe. Basic Maslows hierarchy of needs stuff. What a shame.

Life is to short to worry about anything! Hug and kiss the people you love every day and let them know you love them. Then meditate. When i first started i got frustrated with myself because my brain was having 40 thoughts a second. The secret is breath deeply and slowly. Let your brain have the thoughts dont worry about them just let them flow past you, if you find yourself caught up in a thought its ok just come back to your breathing and concentrate on the in and out this will train your brain. It takes practice but when you get the hang of it you will never think or feel the same again. Love for yourself and others is heightened. Your focus, energy. I could go on but trust me when your in the zone its like a different reality to what your used to, your thoughts are so clear its the best thing i ever tought myself. And think it should be taught in schools

Thank you for this episode. Very interesting and good to hear! I want to push back on Neil's characterization of psychology as being young and immature as a field. The modern, western approach is relatively young. Sorry to be so long-winded! The topic here was meditation, which has a long history of investigation and documentation going back thousands of years. Buddhist practice goes back 2,500 years, and Buddhism evolved from already very established traditions of investigations into the nature of mind, the relationship between the mind and the body, and the relationship between individual mental/physical states and society. Of course, meditation teachers of 500 BCE couldn't know about cortisol or neurotransmitters, just as Galileo didn't know about the Higgs field. But just as pervious generations of physicists made discoveries that were powerful and useful, the Indian investigators of the mind also made discoveries, documented them, and developed training regimens that predictably and reproducibly had certain effects. For example, they developed physical and mental (yogic) practices that allowed one to be calmer and exert control over things like heart rate, breathing, pain (as Heather Berlin described). They found that, after a certain amount of training, you could teach visualizations that would allow most people to control their skin temperature (tummo yoga). They found particular practices for enhancing compassion and kindness. I'm thinking here of a meditative practice where you progressively imagine people more and more distant from you as being the in role of your loving mother (if you have a problem with your mother, you can pick someone else). There are entire curricula on how to develop your mental control, emotional stability, and how to interact more thoughtfully and kindly with others, and many of those practices don't need any particular religious grounding. The Dalai Lama has been pushing to have non-religious versions of these practices taught in schools so that children can learn to have better emotional control and be happier (maybe even more than 10% happier :-). We have already seen that mindfulness-based stress reduction (mindfulness meditation practice taken out of any religious context) can result in measurable improvements in people's lives. The combination of the traditional observations and trainings with modern neuroscience is very exciting! I hope that what the ancient mystics discovered through lots of trial and error and often mixed with various other cultural and philosophical views, can be understood and expanded more quickly with modern tools like FMRI and modern understanding of neurochemistry! Again, I'm sorry for the long note. Take as a sign of my enthusiasm for this topic --- thank you so much, and I hope there will be more!

I know the word meditation is often thrown with other certain activities that claim to solve problems without any scientific basis and that's probably where he's coming from. But one thing is to feel you don't really need it in your life which it's fine, but another is deny the great benefits it can have, just like any other beneficial activity such as exercise.

Either it is something intellectual, academic, physical or emotional.

I don’t know what he would have said if he could have seen my patients looking at their own brains on a video monitor, as some of them do when I operate under local anaesthetic.

I don't know why Neil is so hung up on this, but it is clearly possible to give 110%. Imagine a factory makes 100 cars a day. If they pump out 110 for some reason, that's 110% production for that day. Surplus.

I have a question for neil Degrasse tyson.. it has nothing to do with this video but hopefully i recive an answer.. I was laying in my yard and witnessed what i assumed to be a shooting star but it was moving far to slow, then it disappeared.. throughout the night many more times i seen multiple lights in the sky (100s at one point) all moving in different directions and only visible for a short time, wouls seemingly appear from no where and disappeared just as quick but they were only moving slowly like a plane.. was definitely not a plane! 🤣 any thoughts or answers as to what i seen, i have a friend who also seen the same thing with me so i wasn't dreaming or hallucinating 🤔

Good topic, poor choice of guest to speak on it. Properly ridiculed and laughed at in his face for believing he invented meditation in the 1990's. At least he acknowledges his narcissism early in the pod.

I've been watching Startalk for years, and I still think that Neil is too quick with his distracting humor attempts, and general interruptions. (I need to meditate, I'm salty af). I needed this vid. Thanks✌

SUN TSU from 544 wrote the art of war, while it is not the beginnings of psychology etymologically his writings show that the art of understanding the mind has been around a long time.

😂 yeah Dr Tyson you can meditate and sleep meditate too you know, first learn to keep you mind awake but only let your body sleep. ☝️If you want to look for or feel your consciousness when you meditate treat that as the time for you to say whatever you want to say, let those voices arouse don't surpress it, and then you pretend that you are the father the voices are your sons, as such you are being true to what you listen whether the issues arouse in your mind are your issues or those people you cared, and when you assume you are the father advising your son you'll notice your consciousness (not like computer or brain, more like an antenna or receiver) receiving information that your mind (mind as in brains not as in conscience) never thought of, Bada bing you got the answer. That is the true purpose of meditating and the purpose of meditating is not only to calm your senses, you have to know how (phycologically) to calm it first, before you meditate or else, while you meditate you'll feel stressed because all the things in life that bothers you arouse in your mind altogether, if for those who never nurtured a strong behavior, meditating like this can get worse, it can drive that person to be evil if he is already evil.

Why do people think that a telescope behind you (Neil's appears to be damaged, btw) is necessary in order to be taken seriously as a smart person? What you lookin at in the library, anyway?
