Is there any scientific basis regarding meditation? How does it affect the structure of the brain?

There's plenty of studies showing changes to the brain with meditation and mindfulness.

Theres a great book on it called Zen and The Brain. It's a bit dense, but the info you're looking for might be there. From what I have read there are measurable impacts upon grey matter volume, and shrinking of the amygdala.

I mean, read some zen meditation texts then? There are a lot of them and you can meditate just fine without having someone whispering in your ear
