Answer this question to the best of your ability:
How can regular meditation practice impact our ability to manage emotions long-term?
Regular meditation practice can lead to structural and functional changes in the brain over time. The increased thickness in the prefrontal cortex enhances emotional self-awareness and control. The reduced reactivity of the amygdala means we become better at managing stress and anxiety. Moreover, regular meditation practice increases gray matter in the hippocampus, improving our ability to remember positive experiences which helps build resilience against negative emotions.
