Neurobiological Changes from Mindfulness and Meditation: Systematic Review
How Does Mindfulness Meditation Change Your Brain?
A systematic review published in Biomedicines examines the neurobiological changes induced by mindfulness and meditation. This comprehensive analysis investigates how regular mindfulness and meditation practices create measurable structural and functional changes in the brain, providing scientific evidence for the neuroplasticity effects of contemplative practices. The research synthesizes findings from neuroimaging studies to understand how meditation training modifies brain networks, gray matter density, and neural connectivity patterns associated with attention, emotion regulation, and self-awareness.
