You want to be careful playing with the brain

Back in the beginning of my treatment and rehab, we had a group doing mindfulness cognitive meditation - it was part of a study.

Unfortunately every participant had a negative result. I experienced more major pain and dizziness.

I've been meditating for many many years - so after I recovered from that I went back to other more peaceful meditations.

I still see that study referenced as a miracle for brain issues without any mention of any negatives.

If it helps, that's great. If it doesn't help, then you are not alone.
