The document discusses the results of a study on the effects of meditation on the brain. Researchers found that meditating for 30 minutes a day for 8 weeks can increase the brain's gray matter in regions linked to memory, sense of self, empathy and stress. Specifically, regular meditation was found to increase gray matter in the hippocampus, which governs learning and memory, and in structures related to compassion and self-awareness.
