MEDITATION AND ITS BENEFITS

Meditation

The Concept: Turn that stress into calm. The goal is to soothe your sympathetic nervous 

system (the nerves that make your heart pound and your stomach churn), and switch on 

your parasympathetic nervous system (the nerves that keep you calm under pressure).

The Benefits: Meditation helps treat chronic stress, anxiety, panic attacks, pain, 

depression and insomnia, according to  researchers. And a new study  suggests that daily 

meditation could cut your risk of heart disease or a stroke as much as 47 percent -- by 

dampening production of the artery-damaging stress hormone cortisol.

The Procedure: In training, you’ll be taught to focus on an object, mantra (a word or set of 

words) or sensation (like breathing), while letting your body and brain completely relax. 

After a bit of practice, you’ll be sent home and encouraged to meditate daily.
