Google Tech Talks February, 28 2008 ABSTRACT Mindfulness meditation, one type of meditation technique, has been shown to enhance emotional awareness and psychological flexibility as well as induce well-being and emotional balance. Scientists have also begun to examine how meditation may influence brain functions. This talk will examine the effect of mindfulness meditation practice on the brain systems in which psychological functions such as attention, emotional reactivity, emotion regulation, and self-view are instantiated.

Boise State University found in a group of 484 heterosexual women, 60 percent were attracted to other women; 45 percent had kissed a woman, and 50 percent had fantasies about other women. Elizabeth Morgan, a professor of psychology at Boise State University, studies attractions among the same gender among heterosexuals and finds that straight women often feel more than a friendly affection for other women.
