Working on circular and collaborative economy, I met people who didn\u2019t try to convince me to meditate, but whose examples where eloquent! So, I read a lot of publications on the subject of neurosciences. As I used to practice yoga, I empirically used some breathing methods, and I\u2019ve always cultivated a strong bond with nature. But this is not enough in a political world which can be very toxic.\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><em>Finding the path to the practice has not been simple. As thousands of persons, I didn\u2019t know where I could ask with trust. I am a non-religious, atheist person, and the term \u00ab full consciousness \u00bb keeps bothering me, I do prefer the one of \u00ab full presence \u00bb or \u00ab full awareness \u00bb. I followed with a school teacher friend a MBSR training program of 8 weeks. I didn\u2019t intend to testify about this subject, I lived it as a private matter. This is my meeting with Chris Ruane, a British deputy, who carried the Mindful Nation program to the UK, who convince me to take a word. It is staggering that an enthusiasm so deep for this practice, within the French society, is never evoked by the political world. This is what I want to change, with, as a priority, the diffusion of meditation among children at school, in the area of health, and to prevent the burn-out at work.\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><em>Good if there are meditation sessions in Davos, but as we had to fight during the last century to democratize sport, I consider that brain training must not be kept to an elite. Meditation isn\u2019t a shelter, but a strength of change. It is not a palliative to resign oneself to a stressful universe, it is a scientific progress which can be put to the service of an ideal of well-being.\u00a0\u00bb<\/em><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;64px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Delphine Batho is member of the French parliament for the Deux-S\u00e8vres (French department) since 2007.
