Meditation can actually change the physiology of the brain. The comparison demonstrated an increase of cortical thickness in the right insular lobe and somatosensory cortex of the meditation group. In laymans terms, meditation made parts of the brain corresponding to emotion and perception thicker. This ultimately resulted in a significant after-training reduction of several psychological indices related to worry, state anxiety, depression and alexithymia. So ultimately, meditation made people more emotionally attuned and less depressed — a pretty good argument to spend time solemnly reflecting each day.
