This week on Ginger Campbell's
Brain Science Podcast (#44) the topic is Meditation and the Brain. Good stuff!
Daniel Siegel, MD, is fairly well-known in the psychiatric community for his books on mindfulness and psychotherapy. He is the founder of
Mindsight Institute, an educational organization devoted to promoting insight, compassion, and empathy in individuals, families, and institutions.
Brain Science Podcast #44: Meditation and the Brain 
Daniel Siegel, MD
In Episode 44 of the Brain Science Podcast I talk with Daniel Siegel, MD about meditation and the brain. Dr. Siegel is the author of several books including The Mindful Brain: Reflection and Attunement in the Cultivation of Well-Being. In this interview we review the scientific evidence about how mindfulness meditation changes the brain, both in terms of short term activity and in terms of long-term structural changes. The evidence is convincing that a regular mindfulness practice can be an important element of brain health.
