Today we hear from Steven Laureys MD. Steven is an award-winning neurologist and neuroscientist recognised worldwide as a leading clinician and researcher in the field of the neurology of consciousness. He is head of the GIGA Conciousness Research Unit and Brain Clinic of the university and university hospital of Liege in Belgium and Professor at the CERVO Brain Centre in Laval University, Canada. He has published over 500 scientific articles on the workings of the human mind.
Laureys new book, 'The No-Nonsense Meditation Book,' is released in the UK on 15th April 2021. The book has been translated into 9 different languages and this is the first publication in English. The book includes fascinating research on expert meditators such as Matthieu Ricard, Buddist monk and translator for the Dalai Lama and as Laureys described him, "a rock star of buddism."
The book scientifically proves the positive impact of meditation, and shows how we can easily add meditation to our routines. I love how Laureys makes meditation feel accessible to everyone. Meditation costs nothing and you can do it anytime and anywhere. "Do what you can," this is the basic philosophy of Laureys.
Laureys admits himself that he used to be a skeptic but after a personal crisis in 2012 he started to discover the benefits of meditation and now he prescribes it to his patients in his clinic.
The benefits of meditation are far reaching. Delayed ageing, anti-inflammatory effects, reduced stress and anxiety, pain management. These are just a small number of positive side effects of meditation!
Laureys is also involved in some other truly fascinating work researching hypnosis, consciousness of comatose patients and near death experiences.
I felt so excited after reading this book as I felt as though there was a very real possibility of living a less burdened life with more joy and less suffering, all available to me through my own brain and for free. I can't wait to continue on my meditation journey and to feel the benefits.
