This was an interesting connection to me between meditation and neuroscience. Buddhists talk about the "monkey mind" that chatters incessantly. Well, that's the default mode network, part of your brain that is active when you're not engaged in a specific task, when you're thinking about self, others, past or future. A useful adaptation in our past environment for sure, but overactivity can be detrimental. The Buddhist solution is to mediate, to focus the attention on a singular thing and not be distracted by the chatter. That ability lives in the prefrontal cortex! It's able to override the DMN and it's something that can be trained by just exercising it.
Not recommended if you're depressed/in a bad situation because you can just disassociate from everything instead of fixing it.
You could just as (if not more) easily gain clarity into what you need to fix and how, and increase your ability to act on those insights.
Or you could mess up your brain even more, as it is established by zen teachers and scientific literature.
I think that's what therapy is for. No-thought meditation (vipassana) can't help with that surely, since it involves thinking.
Any special kind of meditation that is recommended?
While it is literally just sitting somewhere watching the breath it is easy to do things wrong like sitting concentrating hard or being bored instead of observing the boredom. The irony of doing nothing being a difficult skill. Anyone interested probably wants to find some serious mediators to talk to - Buddhist monks are recommended but there are others here and there.

Your firewall seems broken.
