In 2005 I had the occasion to have an EEG run on me. I was a pilot and I had an episode of indeterminant syncope. The FAA required this be done.
I have practiced and taught a type of 'mind-fulness for about 18 yrs. When it came time to run the EEG, I decided to do an experiment. I told the technician that I wanted her to run two strips. The first my attention mis-directed and unfocused. The second I would focus on my breathing. The difference was dramatic. In comparison to the first the second presented all channels attenuated smooth and regular. This was the first time I saw visual proof of my training. One would expect these results based on the calmness one experiences when one is focused on the here-and-now. But, to see the evidence is still amazing.
