This is a fundamental property of neuroplasticity—how the brain changes in response to experience. Here, the experience is the focus of attention in a particular manner.

t also served as fertile ground for a systematic set of research investigations in collaboration with one of the founders of the field of affective neuroscience, Richard Davidson of the University of Wisconsin at Madison.

At the same time as Jon Kabat-Zinn was creating the MBSR program some thirty years ago, I was starting medical school just a few miles east in Boston. Discouraged by the lack of empathy in my professors and the way patients—and students—were treated as physical objects seemingly devoid of an internal world, I stopped school to wrestle with this widespread blindness to the inner reality of the mind.

Mindfulness Practice Daily has helped me shrug this off and meet each present moment as it unfolds before me with a light, playful curiosity that invites the law of attraction and welcomes my intuition.  Surrendering to the present moment means I can fully, deeply savour simple things like sunshine in the morning or the tingle of tiredness at night time. http://www.pepperedprawn.com.au/
