Even more, meditation allows these euphoric brain chemicals to be produced constantly.<br/><br/>Also, meditators have far superior mental and emotional health.

Did you know that people who meditate are much happier and healthier than everyone else? It's true. And they have greatly extended life spans, too. As a matter of fact, there have been numerous studies sho
wing that meditation dramatically reduces, and even reverses disease of all types.

But the benefits of meditation don't stop there. Studies also show that experienced meditators -those who are able to achieve the deepest levels of meditative states - are able to tap into dormant levels of brain function they never thought possible -levels of function that exist in each and every one of us -resulting in increased intelligence and moving us closer to answering life's mysterious questions.

Upon closer examination of meditators' brains, they consistently show to function at a superior level than the average person's on every single test, measurement, and assessment generated among the scientific community.

The thing is, our computers have a lot to do when starting up and I think it’s something we often forget about and take for granted. That said, how can we blame our computers when we’re bogging it down with a bunch of junk? It may not even be junk – it may just be great programs, but just starting up when they don’t need to.

When the photos where developed, in the last photo there was a woman standing next to the young man, even though his friends said there was no one with him when
