How does one achieve this state without meditating???... I ask this question because I have achieved what they state...
"these might be the neuronal underpinnings that give meditators' the outstanding ability to regulate their emotions and allow for well-adjusted responses to whatever life throws their way."
Without being a meditator ever I have always regulated my emotions better than the average and have well adjusted responses to whatever life throws my way... (And trust me when I say I have been there done that!) Moreso than the average anyhow... perhaps not amongst all the fine folks I find here
I have tried to meditate but I just can't... My mind is going a mile a minute always... I have always questioned everything and always wondered where all the love was... Never understood hate, greed or judgement.
I just don't get the world today... never have! I see the perfection that could be but am often frustrated and irritated by what I see as reality... It's not pretty, it's not what I imagine, but it's there... I want to enjoy it but I can't because it's obvious...
I've known my whole life that I was here to witness something HUGE... Bigger than 911... I know in my heart good will come of it

... No meditation needed, although I wish I could at times... Seems so peaceful and happy
