Great video! How can I make videos with such images?
On Mindfulness, motivation, and pleasure: a different procedure and perspective from affective neuroscience Procedure: Consistent and periodic alternation between a resting protocol (e.g. mindfulness) and the exclusive pursuit of meaningful behavior will increase motivation and positive affect (arousal and pleasure), and by making meaningful ideation more emotionally salient, will increase productive motivation and crowd out thoughts leading to anxiety and depression. Explanation: Resting elicits opioid activity, or feels pleasurable, and meaningful behavior, as defined as behavior that has branching novel and positive outcomes (writing that great novel or just making the bed) elicits dopamine activity which causes attentive arousal. The awareness of subsequent meaningful behavior while engaging in relaxation protocols such as mindfulness elicits a ‘priming’ response, namely dopamine release that enhances ongoing opioid activity, and vice versa, making meaningful behavior seem self-reinforcing or ‘autotelic’, with cognition less likely to transition to perseverative thought (worry, regret, distraction) that elicits tension or anxiety. In other words, arousal and pleasure (i.e., dopamine and opioid) systems when simultaneously activated by disparate stimuli are synergistic, and co-activate each other to be more than the affective sum of their parts. Although meditative practice reduces discursive thought or mind wandering that can lead to negative ideation or perseverative thought; it does not inhibit concurrent non-conscious awareness or anticipation of behavior or events subsequent to meditation that can in turn shape or ‘prime’ affective responses during a meditative session. A priming response, like the salivary response that precedes food or the sexual arousal that precedes intimacy, is a preparatory response that often occurs non-consciously, and changes the affective value or ‘feeling’ in the moment. Similarly, relaxing due to ‘being in the moment’ is pleasurable, but if we were told to expect ‘bad’ news or ‘good’ news in the near future, just the awareness of future events is enough to depress or elevate our feelings, but not altering in the slightest our ‘mindful’ or relaxed state. It follows that if mindfulness is paired with the awareness of subsequent positive or meaningful behavior, then rest in mindfulness will have a greater affective tone or ‘feel better’ than if such a prospect or expectancy was absent. This is perhaps why ‘savoring’, ‘loving kindness’ meditation, and ‘flow’ experiences represent highly pleasurable and arousing experiences, as they make future positive ideation contingent to obvious or subtle pleasures (due to relaxation, eating, drinking) and contrast with a lower level of pleasure during typical states of rest that generally precede a return to meaningless discursive thinking. A final note on mindfulness: Mindfulness is not a one-off procedure to fight stress or feel good, but should be viewed as a default mode of thinking that can be engaged most of the day to manage affect, motivation, and overall wellbeing. However, although the mindfulness procedure is invaluable, a distinctive mindfulness process does not exist, but rather reflects the cognitive manipulation of affective processes in resting or relaxed states, and is not an exceptional process but a normal way of acting and thinking that makes our lives exceptional.

Very well made video, very well explained. Thanks a lot
Can you send me the sources for your statistics?
This is not science! :Super human abilities:" "make the brain more powerful" Change the title
amazing video my wife is in here lmao
This is literally the secret 😊
Thanks a lot, this is an excellent video
Discipline is doing today what you don't want to do. In order to get or be what you want, later.
In the latest video on the Practical Health channel, it says that there are only 2 types of meditation practices - concentration meditation and mindfulness meditation. Basically, every time I focus on something, only on that object, I meditate. Is it really the case?
Thank you for posting this wonderful video. 💖
Because meditation is a practice, that means it's ok to fail at it. Just keep trying. You will become better at it over time.
My journey in Mindfully mediation began 22 years ago and I consider my practice to be part of my daily routine. Know this, with regular practice it really is excerize for increasing connections in the brain.
Amazing thank you, this video was Recommended by One of the great meditation app "Black lotus". I strongly recommend all of you to try this amazing app❤️🙏
My area of research is mindfulness and this is the best video explaining mindfulness that I've seen to date. Thank you!
Only 30% of fears are in amygdalas
Helpful video for overall understanding. Might I recommend including famous female examples of successful people that meditate to represent the majority of the population creating a more equitable video. Kudos with the female voice though!
Such an interesting video and I love her accent. The part about shrinking the amygdala is so interesting because it explains why the solo climbers have less fear. Climbing itself is probably very meditative
This is a beautiful representation about the power of meditation. Really nice job. The drawings help to remember a lot of interesting information. The example you gave about the monks changing their body temperatures to warm up the sheets was absolutely astounding. Really shows you the power of the mind, also, I feel like we all can use a bit of meditation to be more mindful. I'm going to try to just sit still for 20 minutes a day and concentrate now. Thanks for sharing!!
I want to ask a question but first I don't give fuck about sexuality or gender or race, everyone is the same to me unless you claim to be a Nazi. The Nazi took the Manji symbol, the symbol for a Japanese Buddhist temple and turn it into swasskecka. The LBGT have done the exact act with the rainbow and turn into a political symbol. Q do you think it is appropriate ??? First it very confusing for children who assume that there is pot of gold at the end of every rainbow, Instead children see a group of equality activist dress in erotic leather attire. Thank for trashing the rainbow and turning it into a political symbol that give off the meaning of a select group, just like the Nazi did you fucking self serving egoist.
I agree with everything said, but there are lots of ways to meditate, you don't have to just sit still and listen to your breaths. Any activity which you are focused on without any distraction is meditating, like; exercising, listening to music, cooking, going for a walk. It's what I would call being in a "flow state", where all of your attention is focused just on the activity you are doing and you are completely present in the moment.

"... all you have to do is sit still for 20 minutes and concentrate". This is incomplete. If a person is worrying about something what do you think they will concentrate on for those 20 minutes? The things they are worrying about. You should have told them to concentrate on their breathing or their heartbeats.
nice sources
Regrets can be so frustrating and so can unrealistically high expectations from self in future visions. The kindest thing we can do for ourselves is to stay in the present moment not just physically but also mentally. Practising mindfulness is one of the best techniques to develop this much-needed habit. While we are locked down with more time alone with ourselves, our mind's influence on us is more than ever and thus it is extremely essential to treat it right.

5:27 graphs don't work like that numb skulls
Its for soul not brain and it not concentration of breath its awareness of breath
A little note: guilt in the clip is miss assigned to the 'self'. Knowing difference btw Shame and Guilt very important if you want to be accurate on attributions to life circumstances - btw 'behaviour' and the 'sense of self'
Great video
Well done all..proud of u baby girl...you did great in this video....and well done to those filming
Thank you! Some say there are no guarantees in life, but there is one: what you practice (do over & over) is what you will become an expert at. The beauty is in choosing what you want to be good at!
Beautiful and wise message
💖💖💖
I wish you would've removed the background hiss, it's too bothersome and I can't glean good information from this video :(
Great video that gives you such a positive insight to the effects of daily meditation.I've been meditating daily for 4 years now 20mins twice daily and it's a game changer.Less inner chatter,less anxious,living in the present,more forgiving,lot more calmer to name a few.Highly recommend it👏🏽👏🏽
Great to hear about this, Haleema!
Amazing video. Thanks for making it. I got a lot of good information.
The video makes a mistake. Concentration is NOT the same as attention. In meditation, you are attentive, which is the opposite of concentration.
In Pantajali Yoga Sutras (the oldest text we have about yoga and meditation), DHARANA comes before meditation (which is a state) can happen. The direct translation is Focused concentration. This is a stage you need to master before meditation (which is not something you can do, but something you experience) can happen. In the west, we use the word meditation without this type of discernment, but in fact what most people practice is DHARANA (focused concentration).
Excited for the alum events!
Brilliant and moving film - thank you.
Meditation is not concentration. It is learning to ignore the process of thoughts about I, me and mine. Concentration is focussing on one thought. That will only work as long as you do it. Meditation learns you to starve a complete neutral network once and for all.

My therapist showed us this in group therapy today :)
You can be mindful of your mind worrying. This is mindfulness awareness. It is when you get lost and don't know you are worrying that is the problem. Worrying and depression is normal, I repeat normal. Meditation is not there to get rid of worries and anxieties. Its about changing your relationship to them. You see worrying for what it is, an emotion or mental activity happening within your awareness but is not part of you. You notice it, but your not lost in it. Like being in the cinema, you can be so engrossed in the movie you forget your in the cinema. Meditation is about being aware that your in the cinema watching a movie so that you don't overreact to it, e.g. jump to a scary scene. But isn't being frightened in a horror movie part of the fun? So isn't worrying and anxieties and lives troubles be also part of the fun of being a 'human being'? So the next time your going through sh it thank me! 😉🤣😂🤣😂
Hi. Do you want to say with this that you feel that mindfulness is taking away the fun in life? I can relate to that!! ;)
Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapeutic treatment that helps people learn how to identify and change destructive or disturbing thought patterns that have a negative influence on behavior and emotions. Cognitive-behavioral therapy focuses on changing the automatic negative thoughts that can contribute to and worsen emotional difficulties, depression, and anxiety. These spontaneous negative thoughts have a detrimental influence on mood. This is the most trustworthy online therapy: www.online-therapy.com/?ref=178979
This is terrific and ought to be recommended by GPs for people who stress. I live the drawings in particular, to keep you focused on the dialog too. I'm sending it on to anyone who I know that would benefit from it. Thanks a million.
I start this tomorrow morning, 10 min each day for 30 days
