    Week 2 – Attention and The BrainIntroduction to Sitting Meditation

    In a Washington, DC Metro Station, Joshua Bell, one of the worlds greatest violinists, played a beautiful, intricate, moving piece on a violin worth over 3 million dollars. During the 43 minutes he played, 1,097 people walked by. Only seven stopped to listen, and even those seven paused for only a few minutes. Three days before, Joshua Bell had played the same music to a sold-out audience in Boston where the seats averaged $100 each. His minimum fee for playing a public concert was $75,000. How could so many people have walked by?

    The fact that so few people stopped was not a demonstration of the cluelessness of these commuters, but how the busyness of our daily life can sometimes prevent us from noticing the beautiful and miraculous world all around us. How many amazingly beautiful things do we miss in a day, simply because of the pace of our lives and the intense focus on getting to the next thing?

    VideosThis week’s videos include The Monkey Business Illusion by Daniel Simons which illustrates both the incredible power of attention and the inherent limitations in our ability to perceive fully what is going on around us. Michelle Maldonado, in Mindfulness Practice, gives a beautiful definition of mindfulness: “To be fully present in the moment to the mind, body, and surroundings, with curiosity and kindness”. Mindful Meditation and the Brain and How Meditation Can Reshape Our Brains give a compelling account of how meditation creates physical changes in the brain. Finally, there is Coming to Our Senses by Jon Kabat-Zinn, followed by an entertaining All it takes is 10 Mindful Minutes that includes juggling and a provocative challenge to do “nothing” for 10 minutes.

    ReadingsSitting Meditation describes the practice we are introducing this week. Joshua Bell Plays a $3,000,000 Violin (and almost nobody notices) is a more detailed account of the “concert” described above. The next two readings, How the Brain Rewires Itself and How Meditation Affects the Gray Matter of the Brain discuss the growing body of research that demonstrates how meditative practice, even when done for a relatively short period of time (weeks not years), can physically alter the brain in positive and adaptive ways.

    Daily PracticesThis week, for the formal practice, we introduce the , using breath as the primary object of awareness, alternating this with the Body Scan (Sitting one day, Body Scan the next, etc.). It can seem that the goal of the Body Scan or a Sitting Meditation is to stay focused on exactly one thing at a time (ankle, wrist, breath) and that when you notice your awareness has moved (to a memory, internal narrative, sound and wonderings about the sound), that you are somehow failing. These practices will increase your ability to focus and concentrate, but they will also expand your ability to be with whatever comes into your field of experience, non-judgmentally. Simply noticing that your attention has moved to another object is, in itself, mindfulness in action. Mindfulness includes both a concentrative attention (think laser beam) AND a capacity to perceive a larger picture (think floodlight). Both are important. Focusing on only one thing leaves the larger picture unseen, and maintaining only a broad focus does not allow exploration of the parts.

    The informal practice this week is about becoming aware of how we experience and process pleasant events. They don’t need to be major events, they can be something as simple as feeling the sun on your face or someone smiling at you. Just as we did last week, allow a few minutes before going to sleep to complete the informal practice log.

    Below are your materials for this week. To keep track of your progress and/or to add this week’s material to , see “PRINTING INSTRUCTIONS” at the bottom of this page.

  • Recruiting Participants for Your EBP Proposal

    Instructions

    For this assignment, you are writing the section of your proposal that identifies the population and setting. For example, the population can be patients on a medical-surgical unit who have been readmitted with heart failure within 30 days. Or, the population may be nurses who work in the ICU experiencing burnout due to the pandemic.

    For the setting, the name of the institution need not be given; rather, you can describe the setting by type of institution/unit and location.

    Sample Section Guidelines

    This section covers your planned recruitment and ethical considerations for your future participants. It should take up about two to three pages, or approximately 350 to 500 words. The purpose is to tell the reader what your recruitment plan is for the study. You should have subheadings throughout this section of the paper.

    In this section, write about the following:

    Participant/Setting Section Guidelines – This section of the paper covers the description of the population that will experience the planned change based on your review of literature. The setting should also be described. You should need no more than two paragraphs for each. Continue to use sub-headings throughout this section of the paper.

    In this section, write about the following:

    1. Population: Cover the following points in no more than one or two paragraphs:
    • Who are the recipients of the EBP change? Provide some general information about the population based on the typical patient or if your population is focused on nurses, describe nurses in terms of age, experience, and any other factors that may affect the project implementation.
    • What the inclusion criteria will be, if any (for more expansion, you may add the exclusion criteria to show what was consciously eliminated). An example would be that the population is heart failure patients recently readmitted within 30 days except for patients with severe disease and/or cognitive deficits.
    • Explain your rationale for your choice.
    • Although this subsection should cover all these items, it may be written in a narrative style.
    1. Setting: Keeping in mind this is a proposed setting, and it should not be recognizable for confidentiality and privacy reasons. It is a broad view of the setting. For example:
    • The proposed setting for this project is a large teaching hospital in the northeast. The actual place where the project would be carried out is in the three medicalsurgical units in this hospital. Each unit has a bed capacity of 2530 beds with occupancy rates of 92% to 95%. The project will take place in a private conference room.

    Please refer to the for details on how this activity will be graded.

    Please refer to the grading rubric and the attached Proposal for topic reference.
