82-year-old expert meditator shares her insights on the power of spirituality, the excitement of ageing and the paradoxes of today’s youth
Who best to ask for life advice but
to someone who, faced with the question
‘what are your regrets?’ immediately answers ‘none’?
Françoise is a yoga and ex-French
literature teacher, who has practiced meditation for over 40 years. I had the
wonderful opportunity to ask her about how mindfulness transformed her life.
What amazed me the most about Françoise, is that despite her apparent wisdom and strong belief in her way of life, there was no wish to convince me of anything. She knows that her happiness speaks for itself. I hope that you will find this conversation as inspiring as I did.
A synonym for the word ‘meditation’?
Faced with this question, Françoise
first brought up the word ‘tranquility’.
She then paused. “Actually, this is
more of a state achieve through
meditation.”
“The real synonym of meditation is
‘exercise’.”
“Engaging in meditation is about
embarking on a process through which we build real happiness from within. It
takes effort, and silence is absolutely necessary.”
Despite a difficult childhood and an
unaffectionate mother which left her with anxiety as an adult, Françoise was
able to find contentment that was less dependent upon external circumstances.
But meditation is not just about hard work. For Françoise, “Everything is easier now. I fight less with my husband. I take things as they come. And I am never waiting or wanting for things to happen.”
The biggest benefit of meditation?
“Thanks to meditation, there is no
bad weather. Every day when I wake up, whether it is raining or I see the sun
beaming, I am at peace.”
Whether Françoise means this literately, or as a metaphor for life, or both, I think this is a pretty appealing… Plus a particularly good investment for Belgium residents.
Your best argument for taking up a meditation / mindfulness practice?
“When you go buy a jacket, you know that spending 100€ as opposed to 15€ will usually get you a better quality one, right? Well, it’s the same with happiness. How can you expect to be more fulfilled, if you do not spend time on yourself?”
How can meditation transform life at work?
‘You know what a student of mine once
said to me? With you Ma’am, it’s different, you are the same person inside as
outside the school classroom.”
Françoise explains that meditation was critical for finding the confidence to be her authentic self, as a teacher. Equipped with less negative self-questioning, she was able to teach in a more instinctive way, making “every day different and full of new discoveries”.
How do you approach ageing?
“We tend to see ageing as a scary process, but for me, every day that passes, I feel better and better. So, ageing can only be seen as a gift”.
What are the main obstacles faced by today’s youth?
According to Françoise, today’s youth is plagued by a “bulimia of discovery”. “Young people are always on the move. They go to Bali expecting to discover themselves. You could have travelled the world, but as long as you have not done inner work, you will remain lost”.
Your take on religion?
Françoise is a practicing Catholic. In her view, “religion can be steppingstone to spirituality. But the latter remains the end goal. Many religious people are not spiritual. And religion is absolutely not a requirement for spiritual attainment.”
Any advice for meditation novices?
“It’s wonderful that you want to start. There will be ups and downs as part of the process. Do not give up! It can take a bit of time to start seeing results”
Any concluding words of wisdom?
“As a wise a person once said, human
beings are meant to be happy. But it takes a lot of work!
And meditation practice is one of the
best ways to undertake that much needed work.”
Meditation and mindfulness abilities may predict cognition level
and lower risk of dementia in later life
– A conversation with a ‘medit-ageing’ researcher
Crosswords,
going for a run, eating blueberries… these are cited as protectors against
Alzheimer’s, the most prevalent brain disease of the 21st century. Yet, an activity
that is often overlooked, but powerful for shielding the ageing brain, is
meditation.
This topic was the subject of Anna’s research project on meditation and cognition. I had the wonderful opportunity to ask her about some of her groundbreaking results.
“The research
looked at a group of around 140 people aged 65 or over from across Europe. We
measured their cognitive abilities as well as their capacity to be mindful.
What we found was a strong positive link between mindfulness qualities and
intelligence level in later life. And this is taking into account variables such
as educational level or socio-economic status.”
“The
cognitive abilities we measured included memory and global cognition which are
strongly sensitive to dementia and Alzheimer’s. Basically, the study demonstrates
a possible protective action of mindfulness against Alzheimer’s.”
“How
do you define mindfulness? I ask, “a term that seems to encapsulate many
different practices?”. I think back to images of yogis and Buddhist monks. I also record times walking in nature and focusing
on my surroundings…”Isn’t that also a form of mindfulness?’, I ask,
optimistically.
‘The
impressive takeaway from this study is that the findings were based on a group
of people that we call non-expert meditators, meaning that they only have very
little life-long meditative practice.’ So, no need to be Eckart Tolle to
experience mindfulness qualities’ beneficial effects on cognition.
According to Anna, there are many ways of defining mindfulness capacity. In her study, she broke it down into different categories.
“For
example, we looked at attentional mindfulness, or the capacity to place your
focus on different tasks. We also had demonstrative mindfulness – that’s the
ability to distance yourself from a thought. So, if you have a thought like ‘oh
I’m stupid’, it’s about seeing things as ‘well, maybe that’s just not me, and
maybe I can just decide to see it as a passing thought.’”.
Speaking
of thoughts, I have a nagging one. Having often jokingly described myself as
being ADHD because of my difficulty focusing, my mind turns to all those
children with a clinical diagnosis of the disorder, “are these people doomed to
be less protected against Alzheimer’s because of less attentional capacity?”.
Anna explains that attentional mindfulness is not about the ability to get engrossed in a particular task for a long period of time. Rather, it’s about having the freedom to place your attention on the tasks you want to be doing.
She
also insists that the beauty of these findings lies in the fact that everyone
can learn to be more mindful, even those with concentration difficulties.
Studies increasingly show that mindfulness qualities can be acquired very
rapidly, starting with only a couple of minutes or hours of practice a week.
I ask
if the study implies that expert meditators, of the
‘spend-5-hours-a-day-on-the-cushion’ sort, have a bullet-proof vest against
dementia.
Anna says that some evidence may show that the more we meditate, the higher the protective effects on cognition. But other environmental and genetic factors are of course at play in the development of dementia.
She
also says that no causal link can be established for now. “The study is only
strongly indicative a possible effect, but this needs to be substantiated by
further studies of different types. But this all very exciting and promising.
Especially given all of the other positive effects of mindfulness on mental and
physical health along the life-course”.
What is inspiring about Anna’s work is that meditation’s positive effects on cognition seem to stem from our general ability to apply mindfulness to our day-to-day life. So, the idea is not necessarily to spend X hours meditating on Headspace or watching daily ‘yoga with Adrienne’ videos. It’s about understanding and applying the principles of mindfulness to your day-to-day life. And this is where teachers or meditation mentors come in handy. They can be very helpful for truly inhabiting the spiritual lifestyle. More info to book a one-to-one free session in Brussels or online at Bruxelles Méditation can be found here.
If you are living a somehow anxious life, you may have heard that meditation helps to get rid of anxiety. But as you are a rational person you might want to get more information about whether your life can improve and if meditation really works before you go for it.
First of all, everyone has anxiety to some extent. Some more, some less, but all in all, all of us live in a modern society where mental disorders are frequent: worries about money, fear of the future – especially due to this virus – uncertainty about our work and complicated relationships. Not to mention the constant pressure from the media and society. No wonder we are at least a bit anxious at times!
One benefit of Meditation is that it makes you slow down which helps you wind off the daily anxiety and be more calm and at ease.
Another reason why meditation is the answer to reduce anxiety lies in the roots of anxiety. Anxiety comes from the life lived, the accumulated thoughts and burdens. If for example I was bitten by a dog as a child, I may be anxious when I am around dogs. Letting go of the negative thought from my childhood will free me from that anxiety.
Finally, knowing and looking back at yourself will gradually make you more conscious of who you are and what you truly want. Once you are aware of that, anxiety naturally fades away.
Many succesfull people testified that meditation helped reduce their anxiety
As you may have heard, many successful people are meditating. From Oprah Winfrey to Michael Jordan, Cristiano Ronaldo, Jean-Claude van Damme. They all have expressed several times that meditation helped them to reduce anxiety and the amount of negative thoughts about the future. Furthermore, they are willing to devote some of their time on a daily basis to meditate.
Daily Meditation can help reduce Anxiety
Meditation Technique For Anxiety
10 minutes meditation for anxiety
Find at least 10 minutes daily to sit down and observe all the distracting factors and the anxiety you are facing. Be aware of the situation and accept it, even though it could be difficult sometimes.
Try to relax and find a comfortable position (possibly sitting) to be together with your own thoughts and feelings. Let all the random things come to your mind. Without judging them, just observe them.
Use the power of your mind to welcome all these emotions and breathe slowly and deeply at your own pace.
If your mind wanders or any random thoughts come up, let them go just as a cloud flies away.
Enjoy your meditation. Bear in mind that it is part of a process that you are going through and the journey is not less important than the final destination.
Finish the meditation by taking a few deep breaths and being grateful for the opportunity to let go of anxiety.
It is also scientifically proven that daily meditation helps substantially reduce the levels of anxiety even though you would commit only 10 minutes daily to meditation. Meditation affects the brain waves, which in turn generate a smoother energy flow in the body, parallelly reinvigorating body and mind. There is no one, who would not have at least 10 minutes per day to do something for their mental and physical health. Even doctors, scientists and practitioners are realizing the power of the mind, which is the key component in attaining balance, harmony and satisfaction in our lives. Besides, everyone can meditate! We all have inherent abilities to cure ourselves as the children of nature. If we discover this wonderful capability of ours, the meditation can do wonders.
First of all, anxiety is not our original nature. Our original nature is the pure, empty consciousness, void of all the humanly worries, anxiety and stress. The latter are things that we acquired while adding more and more thoughts to our minds by living a life of greed and dissatisfaction, contrary to our true self. Thus, if we eliminate these added minds, why would the source of our problem not disappear? Just like the world is very logical, the human mind is also logical. So if we keep adding more and more anxiety to our minds, it will be filled and overflown quickly, causing stress and pain, but if we subtract and delete them, it will be filled with joy, bliss and more and more happiness. The formula is quite simple: stop suppressing, start subtracting!
Meditation to get rid of anxiety
You do not need to be an expert in science to experience the benefits of throwing away your anxiety. Even those who do not know anything about meditation, medicine or have no spiritual background, can feel the positive changes that occur very quickly. You will feel the amazing changes yourself and would want to continue the practice of meditating. Thousands of people are already the living proof that meditation is not just a slogan but it really works. So many people are thankful for having given it a chance and making an effort. Do not forget, even small but steady steps bring huge changes on the long term and once you start, nothing can stop you from achieving an anxiety free life and future. As you are reading this article, you must have the willingness to do it, so why not start systematic meditation now at the meditation center in brussels?

1. Meditation Reduces Stress
To understand what meditation can do against stress, we first have a closer look to what Stress actually is: Stress is the result of past experiences, unresolved traumata, painful experiences, negative thinking, inner conflicts and emotional pain. Being more specific: Stress is the physical feeling of the activated Fight-Flight-Freeze-mechanism of the nervous system. In this mechanism the body is ready to either fight, escape or freeze to face death. The whole energy of the body goes into the muscles, which are ready to act. The heart beats faster and stronger to deliver as much oxygen as possible and the body is fully alert for anything happening in your surrounding, so you can act as quickly as possible. In this state all energy, also by the Immune-system and by the part of the body being responsible for healing, is needed and taken. The short term result is that the immune system is inhibited due to cortisol. Thus, the immune system is not able to perform well The long term result is that the body is completely out of balance, unable to recover.

‘It is late. The body is tired and there is only the strong desire to fall asleep. But I can not. I try to not think about today or tomorrow. I try to not think about whatever keeps me awake, sometimes I do not even know why am I still awake. I try to not try to fall a sleep. I am so tired. However, I find myself awake on one side of the bed, then on the other side, then on my back. The next day I wake up and feel terrible, as If I would have partied all night or as I would have had to many drinks. I am tired, energyless and can not wait the day to be over, to catch up with my sleep again.’
Everyone has expierenced this. Some of us sometimes, some of us regularly and some of us to a very high extent, too. However, we expierenced that people who meditate regularly are happily stating that this issue dissolves, and how it completely dissapears over time.
But how can meditation increase the quality of sleep?
When the mind wanders, it is restless. Some thoughts or elements in life are regulalry returning to our minds. This keeps one awake and stresses the body. Due to meditation one realizes which thoughts are constantly coming into our minds, keep us awake and how to let go of them. We highly recommend to try out our free Seminar. With this one can see how the sleeping pattern will change over time. In our guidance and individual mentoring we offer an easy meditation method one can apporach before going to bed. It helps to easily let go of the day and to fall a sleep like a baby.
Images make our mind. People create their own mind world by taking pictures of their life. So, we are always taking pictures of our surroundings by our eyes, nose, mouth, ears and even by using the body. Through the creation of our own imaginary world, we create pictures which make our mind happy, sad, mad, jealous, fearful, guilty. As an example: the same event one has experienced can be seen from very different ways: when you in a good mood you see it as a beautiful memory, when you in a bad or sad mood the same memory turns into a painful event. It is not the event which created that pain, it is looking back to an non existing event and creating pictures about something which is not really existing anymore.
Our meditation is to let go of these false images to be able to see the true nature of events and life. We have a free Introduction Seminar where you can have a look at all the images you have. Our mentoring and guided meditation can support you to let go of these images, to be free from worry, pain or sadness.
How were you today? How was your job? Are you feeling well?
If you cannot reply on this question positively, maybe you are stressed. As well known, stress is the cause of all diseases. It can destroy your daily life. So, we have to let go of our stress regularly. But how? I can strongly say, that the key to eliminate stress is meditation. By meditating, we reduce stress and feel more relax, we even treat our body in the most possible way. It is important to handle stress immediately, before it gets worse over time.
Research on the Effects of Meditation
There is an interesting research about effects of our meditation on breast cancer survivors and their psychological well-being by the Seoul National University Hospital. There are two groups, one is participating in our meditation program, the other is taking part in a self-care education program.
The group MM (yellow line) is the group participating in the meditation program and the group SME (grey line) is the group taking part in a self-care education program.
Here we can see, people practicing our meditation have a higher reduction of their stress levels than people practicing the self-care education program.
This diagram shows a depression parameter. It is clear to see that the group with meditation reduced their depression more than the group with a self-care education.
The diagram above is presenting the test peoples’ score for Satisfaction with life. Here it is visible that there is a lot of improvement for the people practicing meditation, whereas the people practicing a self-care education almost haven’t got any changes at all.
Within this diagram we can see that people practicing our meditation have an increased Posttraumatic growth Index (PtGI) in a better way than people practicing the self-care education program.
So this research is clearly showing that practicing our meditation program has better results for reduced stress and depression, and improved satisfaction of life and PtGI than practicing self-care education.
