Описание: Why Breath Meditation Feels Blissful: The Brain as a Prediction Engine (Active Inference Explained)Unlock the profound science behind why mindfulness of breathing (ānāpānasati) generates deep internal pleasure — viewed through the lens of active inference, the brain’s role as a prediction engine minimizing uncertainty and computational load.In this video, we explore:

• How everyday consciousness is flooded with "noise" from sensory chaos and Default Mode Network (DMN) mind-wandering, creating high variational free energy (prediction error) and mental exhaustion.
• Why the breath provides an exceptionally predictable, low-error sensory signal that the brain loves to lock onto.
• The power of precision weighting: Intentionally amplifying the breath’s signal so it wins the brain’s "inferential competition," attenuating distractions and binding awareness into a unified, coherent model.
• How minimizing prediction error radically reduces computational load — experienced as profound peace and endogenous reward.
• The neurochemical payoff: 65% surge in dopamine for energizing rapture (pīti), followed by 70% increase in anandamide for refined bliss (sukha).
• The shift to effortless concentration in expert meditators: Decreased dlPFC/ACC activation as the system enters a self-sustaining, near-critical state of one-pointedness (ekaggatā).

Vivid Analogy: Your mind is like a radio receiver in a storm of static (stress and wandering thoughts). The breath is a single, unchanging clear frequency. By precisely tuning the dial (precision weighting), the static vanishes. Once locked in perfect resonance, the radio uses almost no power — and the pure, beautiful music of bliss flows effortlessly.Perfect for meditators, neuroscientists, or anyone curious about why sitting with the breath can feel so extraordinarily rewarding.
