What's wrong with Deepak Chopra? Smart dude. His theories on quantum mechanics are pretty cool.

actually meditation does work. less stress makes it easier to lose weight. plus deep breathing allows more oxygen which is good for overall health.

>mfw /sci/ doesn't understand anything about stress probably because they are neurotic basement dwellers with shitty lives.

lulz, sadly true. I am neurotic basement dweller for 6 years now, living on retirement. I do meditate tho and am very fit. I would of never guessed there was a connection to fitness tho. I just meditate while doing drugs or stress from isolation.

People attach too much spirituality to the act of meditating.

It's a cool brain hack; that's all it is.

Lose weight by sitting down and not moving.
Sorry, but no.

I never understood the belief in the spiritual aspect of meditation.

Meditation for me is the act of controlling my brain activity on a conscious level.

Actually I wouldn't doubt that in some people's case, adding meditation to proper diet and adequate exercise would help them lose excess bodyfat by lowering stress levels. Some people are serious stress-monkeys, and stress hormones can really throw your metabolism out of whack and make it difficult to lose weight when you want to.
