Our research partners at UC San Diego have just published a paper titled “Multidimensional analysis of twin sets during an intensive week-long meditation retreat: A pilot study” in Mindfulness Journal.
Highlighting the findings of the first study of its kind on twins, the paper investigates the impact of meditation on the brain, body, and heart during a seven-day intervention: a Week Long Advanced Retreat with Dr Joe.
The 6th Big Syn International Film Festival is screening a dazzling array of nearly 150 films that have been selected from hundreds of feature films, shorts, documentaries, animations, micro-shorts and charity films from over 120 countries. Amongst others, a notable film that is screening at the festival is SOURCE, a mind blowing movie on the science behind meditation. Directed and Written by Melissa Tittl from Hathor studios, this movie follows the work of International teacher and researcher Dr Joe Dispenza and a group of scientists from UCSD and Innerscience to reveal the truth about meditation and our bodies.
Dr Joe partnered with Dr Peta Stapleton at Australia’s Bond University to study meditation’s effects on 900 primary school children over a 10-week period. This is the largest study on kids and meditation ever conducted.
