The effects of meditation on the body have been studied extensively and findings show that meditation can affect both the brain's structure and functions.

Structurally, those who meditate tend to have increased cortical thickness (gray matter concentration) of the hippocampus - the part of the brain responsible for regulating emotions and memory, as well as certain areas of the brain that play roles in emotion regulation, self-awareness, compassion, and introspection.

They also tend to have decreased volume in the amygdala- the part of the brain responsible for emotions such as stress, fear, and anxiety.

Some expert meditators have been known to develop a thicker cerebral cortex-the outer layer of the brain responsible for more sophisticated thought processes such as introspection and abstract thinking.

Additionally meditators are are better able to regulate the connection between the amygdala and prefrontal cortex. The prefrontal cortex is responsible for regulating the responses to stress that start in the amygdala. Meditators will still experience stress but are better at maintaining calm and responding effectively.

Did you know that IASIS Microcurrent Neurofeedback is great for kids!?
IASIS MCN is safe and effective for kids, in fact, they tend to respond more quickly than adults since they have higher levels of neuroplasticity than adults do.

IASIS MCN is also a passive process, meaning they do not have to focus on a particular task in order for the treatment to be effective. They can read, play games, chat with their technician or pet our in office therapy dog Stella!
This makes treatment more enjoyable for everyone involved and avoids stress that may come as a result of having to complete a specific task or "test".
IASIS MCN uses small sensors to painlessly stimulate the brain. This stimulation allows the brain to develop new neural pathways and can alleviate many mental health symptoms associated with:
🧠 Anxiety
🧠 Depression
🧠 Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
🧠 Binge Eating Disorder (BED)
🧠 Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
🧠 Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
🧠 Sleep Disorders
🧠 Chronic Stress
and more!
IASIS MCN offers a treatment option that is:
✅ Painless
✅ Drug Free
✅ Natural

✅ Increased Confidence
✅ Increased Empathy & Happiness
✅ Improved Academic Scores
✅ Decreased Reactivity
✅ Lower Blood Pressure & Resting Heart Rate

Just like with adults, starting a meditation practice with your child can be challenging but with practice and patience it can be done!
Meditation with your child can simply be focusing their attention on a relaxing task or activity such as breathing exercises or going for a walk and having them describe what they see. Just like when you start a meditation practice start slow, just a minute or so at a time and work your way up!
