Listen "Memory & Meditation"
Episode Synopsis
Researchers randomly assigned volunteers, with mild cognitive impairment, to either twelve weeks of meditation, and other yoga practices, or twelve weeks of memory enhancement training, which taught strategies for improving forgetfulness. In the end the study found both groups did a little better on tests of verbal memory but the meditation group showed a bigger change in tests of visual spatial memory, which is needed for navigating while walking or driving or trying to recall a location.
