Excellent summary of the effect of meditation on the brain and of personal experience. Loved it, thank you Jon!

Thank you for such a clear and practical explanation. I am much more motivated now to continue developing my meditation practice.

Nicely done. From one teacher to another, I appreciated how you introduced what mindfulness is and touched upon some basic physiological points and key benefits. Would love to know the research studies backing them. All the best!

Excellent talk and information. You’ve encapsulated so much science in a brief talk. Thanks for sharing! 🙏💜✨

So informative and helpful. T highly recommend this to everyone.

Thank you so much for this excellent explanation. It reminded me of an interesting book called “The art of changing the brain” by James Zull. I wish you continuous peace and happiness. Namaste 🙏🏽

Best explanation of meditation I have heard since joining insight timer thankyou for yr valuable input🌼

This is the most simple and concise scientific explanation of the benefits of mindfulness meditation I've heard in all of the time I've been practicing it. The fact that it is presented by a Navy SEAL should encourage even the most skeptical person to give it a try. Great short talk!

Brilliantly presented. Been meditating for many years and it is an essential part of my coaching practice. And, I learned form this talk!

Inspiring + helpful! EVOLving gratefulness.org, ahimsa

Very informative thank you

Excellent 👏🏻 highly recommend anyone listen who is new to meditation and mindfulness

Very clearly presented, thank you!

Great breakdown of the science behind mindfulness and meditation.

I've been meditating for only 90 days but already feeling subtle changes. I'm still working on the mindful side. I am a creative person, knitting, sewing, art journaling and often get lost in the flow that it brings.

Great, clear explanation. Thank you.

Sharing the examples really helps

Thank you very much Jon , I learned meditation mindfulness at the west Los Angeles V.A. This has helped me deal with the many trials in the military and with living a life without questioning why. I hope the v.a. Will adopt this philosophy first before medication

Can I give you 10 stars? Incredibly informational, clear and just perfect!

THE(!) most Perfectly(!) formed explanation and argument for practicing meditation.
