        No compelling argument against mindfulness in that article. Positives greatly outweigh negatives. http://huff.to/1c6czl4  @SamHarrisOrg

        @SamHarrisOrg that article made it sound like children would not benefit as much, because of all in implicit learning they do?

        @SamHarrisOrg it would be interesting to know if the changes were significant and detrimental to creativity.

        @SamHarrisOrg remember Sam hinting n one of your articles/books? about th possible necessity of mind wandering that meditation may limit.

        @SamHarrisOrg thanks for the link. Spreading the notion of mindfulness is always ideal in my mind - and i like that the article challenges!

        @SamHarrisOrg Not letting ones mind wander is not a con of mindfulness. Your mind WILL wander. Mindfulness is recognizing when it has.

        @SamHarrisOrg Of course you need a balanced day, week, whatever. "time out" is a part of it, and so is "time in".
