Evidence
It helps to develop all aspects of health from spiritual to physical and logic or cognitive. When it is used specifically for people with an aversion to static meditation, it can help assist to break through to new heights of awareness. And it is also beneficial in that it is not setting specific (i.e. you can do it just about anywhere with enough calm and privacy to have a successful session). — Pauline Oliveros, Deep Listening, 439
