Webinar: A new phase for research on meditation?

From laboratory experiments to everyday stress

By Svend Davanger, Professor; Erik Ekker Solberg, Medical Doctor and Vilde Haakensen, Oncologist and Cancer Researcher

Why do people meditate? Stress management and relaxation, health issues, personal development, or spiritual curiosity are all frequently reported reasons. Some practice meditation occasionally, but those who continue to meditate throughout life have experienced that meditation contributes with something valuable. Not all these experiences are reported in medical studies. Nevertheless, it is interesting to look closer at recent scientific research on the effects of meditation on bodily and mental health. Three presentations will be given in this webinar:

  • An overview of medical research on Acem-meditation
  • Stress and meditation among youth and students
  • Meditation effects on anxiety and depression

Forsoning – seniorfasens personlighetsutvikling

Alternativet til benekting og flukt er å forsone seg med døden som en grunnleggende dimensjon i tilværelsen. Man kan ha to tanker samtidig: være forsont med døden og kjenne uro overfor den. Mer enn noen annen dimensjon ved tilværelsen kan døden stimulere ærlighet, modning og aksept.
