The document discusses a study that examined the effects of meditation on the brain. Brain scans of participants before and after an 8-week meditation training program showed increased gray matter in the hippocampus, which governs learning and memory. Additionally, meditators showed less age-related atrophy in brain areas linked to emotional processing, cognitive functions and introspection.
