About This Episode
Matt explains how modern research is revealing the brainwave changes that happen during deep meditation — from alpha and beta to the slower, more profound theta and gamma states. He describes how difficult it is to reach these levels without training, because most people have never learned how to quiet certain parts of the brain. Speaker 1 calls it what it feels like: a “magic power.” Watch full episode here: https://youtu.be/Zb3aRd8_y80 #austinandmattpodcast #austinandmatt #podcastclips #podcast #Meditation #Brainwaves #Mindfulness #Science #Theta #Gamma #Neuroscience #MentalHealth

And when you get into deep deeper and deeper states of meditation, the brain waves that we're putting off, they go from alpha to beta to theta to gamma. And we're actually showing this physiological response, but it's hard to do because you have to you have to be able to turn off parts of your brain. And if you've never [clears throat] done it, and most people never have, we've never learned. >> That's a magic power right You and and so the practice of meditation
