Did you know that meditation can
- •Reduce blood pressure
-• Boost recovery after the release of the stress hormone cortisol
- • Improve immune system functioning and response
-•Slow age-related atrophy of the brain
- • Mitigate the symptoms of depression and anxiety
Studies also show meditation can reduce
-•violence in prisons
-•boost productivity in the workplace, and improve both behavior and grades for school children.
Things really get interesting when you look at the neuroscience. In recent years, neuroscientists have been peering into the heads of meditators, and they’ve found that the practice can rewire key parts of the brain involved with self-awareness, compassion, and resiliency.
One study from the Harvard Gazette found that just eight weeks of meditation resulted in measurable decreases in gray matter density in the area of the brain associated with stress.
