Speaking of Faith with Krista Tippett
 
I haven't watched it yet, physicist with PD.

Quote:

Arthur Zajonc sees contemplation as investigating life from the inside — and now it is teaching him about living with Parkinson's disease. We hear how this physicist draws on the humanities and meditation to integrate the intellectual and sensory aspects of life.

Quote:

I started my meditation practice in my usual way with the cultivation of humility, reverence, and calm. I slowly opened and closed my unsettled hand in synchrony with my shallow breathing. The tremor in my right hand gradually slowed as my meditation deepened and my awareness widened. The movements of my body associated with Parkinson's became smaller and ultimately stopped. The jitters that accompany me during the day had finally ceased, and I found a place of rest and ease. I welcomed the silent spacious calm. It seemed as if a whole day's agitation slid from my body.
