At this historic moment, which is characterized by exponential stress due to COVID pandemic, we need tools to help us cope better and enhance our immune system, sense of security, awareness, and information processing

The Research Institute for Neuroscience, Education and Didactics (RINED) of the Patrizio Paoletti Foundation will attend the Mind-Brain-Mindfulness Seminar. A talk titled “Spherical resilience: electrophysiological and molecular changes following movement meditation” will be presented by Tal Dotan Ben-Soussan, director of RINED.

In particular, this talk will discuss the underlying neurobiological mechanisms mediating improved cognitive and emotional functions following a specific movement meditation called the Quadrato Motor Training (QMT). Moreover in this talk will be share another meditation protocol (OMM: One Minute Meditation), which aims to increase coping during COVID pandemic among high school and university students. In this context will be emphasized the importance of narration, the search for meaning and prefiguring the future that may aid in coping with stress and increase physical, immunological and emotional well-being.
