Mind, Meditation & Mysticism Interaction between body, mind, behavior, and soul is the simplest definition of meditation. Meditation signals the brain to shift from high-frequency waves to slower, more relaxed waves that produce states of calm, deep focus, and sleep. The mind slows down the thought process, which otherwise is constantly going on in the mind. This helps to increase mental strength. Such a person usually remains in a balanced state in any given situation. The mind is a very complex structure. The mind can make or mar a person. This wavering mind cannot always be in a delicate, cheerful, and happy state. At times, the mind may be rough, tough, and in a sunken state. This can occur in defiance of our wishes and desires. Meditation can bring about a balance between the different states of the mind. Meditation trains the mind to remain cool, calm, and composed. Meditation sharpens the mind by remaining focused and expands the mind through relaxation. Mysticism is popularly known as becoming one with God or the Absolute. It is true that the meaning of mysticism kept on changing with time, but even today the word mysticism simply brings the idea of something supernatural. Mystical experiences can also be induced voluntarily. Trance states can be brought about by many forms of meditation that focus attention on mantras, chanting, images, or simple objects like the flame of a candle or a lit bulb. Mysticism has the power to melt the human ego, come closer to and become one with the Supreme. As such, the goal of meditation is to experience the infinite inner consciousness and thus realize the purpose of existence! Regular practice of meditation helps to remain stress-free and tension-free. This in turn affects longevity in the long run. Thus, the mind, meditation, and mysticism are interwoven. This book teaches in-depth and step-by-step various different forms of meditation, depending on the circumstances a person is placed in. There are different forms of meditation to overcome grief, fear, sorrow, shyness, depression, pain, loneliness, and insomnia. On the other hand, there are meditations that help to spread positive vibes not only within self but also to the surrounding environment and to far distant areas too! AUM meditation is simply blissful. In short, the book is a true companion, complete guide, and encyclopedia of meditation practice when read, re-read, and practiced lifelong!

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “Brilliant and enthralling.”​ —The Wall Street Journal A paradigm-shifting book from an acclaimed Harvard Medical School scientist and one of Time’s most influential people. It’s a seemingly undeniable truth that aging is inevitable. But what if everything we’ve been taught to believe about aging is wrong? What if we could choose our lifespan? In this groundbreaking book, Dr. David Sinclair, leading world authority on genetics and longevity, reveals a bold new theory for why we age. As he writes: “Aging is a disease, and that disease is treatable.” This eye-opening and provocative work takes us to the frontlines of research that is pushing the boundaries on our perceived scientific limitations, revealing incredible breakthroughs—many from Dr. David Sinclair’s own lab at Harvard—that demonstrate how we can slow down, or even reverse, aging. The key is activating newly discovered vitality genes, the descendants of an ancient genetic survival circuit that is both the cause of aging and the key to reversing it. Recent experiments in genetic reprogramming suggest that in the near future we may not just be able to feel younger, but actually become younger. Through a page-turning narrative, Dr. Sinclair invites you into the process of scientific discovery and reveals the emerging technologies and simple lifestyle changes—such as intermittent fasting, cold exposure, exercising with the right intensity, and eating less meat—that have been shown to help us live younger and healthier for longer. At once a roadmap for taking charge of our own health destiny and a bold new vision for the future of humankind, Lifespan will forever change the way we think about why we age and what we can do about it.

Author, activist, and TED speaker Ashton Applewhite has written a rousing manifesto calling for an end to discrimination and prejudice on the basis of age. In our youth obsessed culture, we’re bombarded by media images and messages about the despairs and declines of our later years. Beauty and pharmaceutical companies work overtime to convince people to purchase products that will retain their youthful appearance and vitality. Wrinkles are embarrassing. Gray hair should be colored and bald heads covered with implants. Older minds and bodies are too frail to keep up with the pace of the modern working world and olders should just step aside for the new generation. Ashton Applewhite once held these beliefs too until she realized where this prejudice comes from and the damage it does. Lively, funny, and deeply researched, This Chair Rocks traces her journey from apprehensive boomer to pro-aging radical, and in the process debunks myth after myth about late life. Explaining the roots of ageism in history and how it divides and debases, Applewhite examines how ageist stereotypes cripple the way our brains and bodies function, looks at ageism in the workplace and the bedroom, exposes the cost of the all-American myth of independence, critiques the portrayal of elders as burdens to society, describes what an all-age-friendly world would look like, and offers a rousing call to action. It’s time to create a world of age equality by making discrimination on the basis of age as unacceptable as any other kind of bias. Whether you’re older or hoping to get there, this book will shake you by the shoulders, cheer you up, make you mad, and change the way you see the rest of your life. Age pride! “Wow. This book totally rocks. It arrived on a day when I was in deep confusion and sadness about my age. Everything about it, from my invisibility to my neck. Within four or five wise, passionate pages, I had found insight, illumination, and inspiration. I never use the word empower, but this book has empowered me.” —Anne Lamott, New York Times bestselling author
