Hi everyone. I saw a blog post about differing views on whether medication was okay for meditation. What I mean is does medication help or hurt the person meditating. Disclaimer: Obviously if you need the med to be safe that's the way to go. The two views were eith for or against meds for the practioner. I personally see meds as stabalizing chemical imbalances that affect the mind/reason/emotions/etc. They only change ones reality or perception in so far as the affect the problem areas of the brain. So we may eat some food that affects serotonin in the brain and we feel less depressed. This would not hinder ones meditative practice obviously! But would taking say prozac? I feel that it wouldn't. My question is to anyone who meditates or practices yoga, what is your position on this matter?
