When looking beyond the mind, our true nature is bliss; but due to the outward projection of the mind we keep seeking happiness in the material world, only when one desire is fulfilled the next one props up, creating a vicious cycle and leading to a lack of fulfilment. To step out of this cycle, one can observe their thoughts attentively through mindfulness and meditationfor parkinson's disease. When people start meditating, they are often surprised to notice the many thoughts constantly running through their head, but this realisation is a positive part of the process, it’s the first time they are connecting with something beyond the mind and thoughts – the observer, beingness, consciousness, awareness or true self. 136 David Street, Dandenong, VIC 3175 www.outpaceparkinsons.com.au

Mind wandering or daydreaming is not only a common activity, present in roughly 50% of our waking life, it is also associated with less happiness, ruminating and worrying about the past and future. Mind wandering is also known to correlate with neural activity in a network of brain areas that support self-referential processing, known as the default-mode network (DMN) or Me centre! This network has been associated with processes ranging from attention lapses, to anxiety, to clinical disorders such as attention- deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and Alzheimer’s disease. The network activates “by default” when a person is not involved voluntarily. Many philosophical and contemplative traditions teach that ‘living in the moment’ increases happiness. One potential way to reduce DMN activity is through the practice of mindfulness meditation. This provides a unique understanding of possible neural mechanisms of meditation.Learn more about meditation for parkinson’s disease www.outpaceparkinsons.com.au or call (03) 9791 1599. 136 David Street, Dandenong, VIC 3175 www.outpaceparkinsons.com.au
