Does meditation improve memory?

Are you a person who has trouble controlling your emotions? A new study of the Brown University reveals that meditation works as a control of sensations, so it helps you reduce from depression to chronic pain.

In the study published by the magazine Frontiers in Human Neuroscience It is detailed that the full awareness that is acquired through meditation allows a person to have greater control over the cerebral process that generates pain and emotions.

The researchers mention that conscious meditation, through breathing, influences the alpha cortical rhythms found in the somatosensory cortex of the brain, which play a fundamental role in what the body feels and in thoughts.

"People who practice mindfulness develop a greater sensitivity to control their alpha cortical rhythms, that is, those specific negative body sensations, such as chronic pain or depression," say the specialists.
