Episode 109 :: José Angel Lopez :: Atheist Meditation Community

http://secularbuddhism.org/2012/03/25/episode-109-jose-angel-lopez-atheist-meditation-community/ José Angel Lopez talks with us about Atheist Meditation on FaceBook. Many of us either did not grow up with the practices of a religious tradition, or if we did, we’ve since moved away from them. We wear the scarlet letter for what is often viewed as a dirty word in our society, Atheist.

Mind Reading: Jon Kabat-Zinn Talks About Bringing Mindfulness Meditation to Medicine

<img src="http://timewellness.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/200556808-001kabatzinncrop.jpg?w=480&#038;h=320&#038;crop=1" alt="Hands of person meditating" title="Hands of person meditating"/> Jon Kabat-Zinn, an MIT-trained molecular biologist, began meditating in 1966, when the practice was primarily the province of hippies and gurus, not scientists. Now, thanks in large part to his efforts, it has become mainstream medicine. Dozens of studies have since shown the benefits of what he termed Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) in treating cardiovascular disease, depression, addictions, chronic pain and many other conditions. Kabat-Zinn has authored a new book, Mindfulness for Beginners that aims to introduce meditation to first-timers.
Binaural beats To experience the binaural beats illusion it is best to listen to this file with headphones on moderate to weak volume – the sound should be easily heard, but not loud. Note that the sound appears to pulsate.

Binaural beats

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binaural_beats
We experience binaural beats when we hear two different frequencies, one in each ear. The binaural beat is defined as the difference between the two pitches. For example, if you hear a 200Hz sound in one ear and a 190Hz sound in the other you’ll hear a 10Hz binaural beat because 200 - 190 = 10. Think of a binaural beat as an auditory artifact. http://www.jetcityorange.com/binaural-beats/
