During meditation you transcend the feelings of the body are no longer at the mercy of the environment and lose track of time. You forget about you as an identity. As you close your eyes, the input from the outside world is reduced under Neocortex has less to think about and analyze. As a result the analytical mind begins to become subdued and electrical activity in the neocortex quiets down. Then, when you rest fully pay attention, concentrate and focus in a relaxed manner, you automatically activate the frontal lobe, which reduces synaptic firing in the rest of the neocortex. Therefore you lower the volume to the circuits of the brain that process time and space. This allows your brain to naturally slow down to alpha. Now you are moving from a state of survival into a more creative state and your brain naturally re calibrates itself to a more orderly, coherent brainwave pattern.
