Meditation Challenges
Negative experiences during meditation can be a sign of genuine engagement rather than an adverse effect. It's crucial to identify when meditation impacts life outside the practice, prompting discussions about alternatives and safety measures. Training meditation teachers and individuals to recognize their limits and signs of distress can enhance the overall experience and mitigate risks associated with meditation practices.In this clip

What are the adverse effects of meditation as discussed in the episode The Hidden Risks of Meditation — Dr. Willoughby Britton | The Tim Ferriss Show and the clip Meditation Challenges?
I have a question about this episode The Hidden Risks of Meditation — Dr. Willoughby Britton | The Tim Ferriss Show and this Meditation and Dissociation. If a person works to change their physiological response immediately after being triggered, would that over time also diminish the physiological response and therefore break the conditioning? For example, if a person had a traumatic experience with a spider and every time they see the spider or get activated through some trigger, they immediately use breathwork to calm the body, would that work like retelling a narrative to extinguish the fear? Did I miss something?
