UCLA has just completed a study that proves meditation builds grey matter and that frequent meditators have a larger hippocampus.
In my humble opinion, meditation is something that billions of dollars should be allocated to study. Since Eli Lilly can't find a way to charge us for what we do in our own homes, I suspect that will never happen. I had read about children who were shown an animated video about how the immune system worked and were taught to meditate were able to fight off infection at an exponentially improved rate.
This is a subject I am very interested in, but actual data is kind of hard to find. If you ever run across studies or unbiased reporting please send me the links.
