Meditation usually refers to a state in which the body is consciously
relaxed and the mind is allowed to become calm and focused. Several major
religions include ritual meditation; however, meditation itself need not
be a religious or spiritual activity. Most of the more popular systems of
meditation are of Eastern origin, though there exists also various forms
of Christian, Jewish and Muslim meditation.
Meditation as a form of alternative medicine brings about mental calmness
and physical relaxation by suspending the stream of thoughts that normally
occupy the mind. Generally performed once or twice a day for approximately
20 minutes at a time, meditation is used to reduce stress, alter hormone
levels, and elevate one's mood.
A discipline in which the mind is focused on a single point of reference.
Employed since ancient times in various forms by all religions, the
practice gained greater notice in the post war US as interest in Zen
Buddhism rose. Meditation is now used by many nonreligious adherents as a
method of stress reduction; known to lower levels of cortisol, a hormone
released in response to stress. Enhances recuperation and improves the
body’s resistance to disease.
Meditation is an easy and simple way to balance a person's physical,
emotional, and mental states. It is easily learned and has been used as an
aid in treating stress, anxiety, pain management, and as part of an
overall treatment for other conditions including hypertension and heart
disease. Research shows that meditation decreases the heart rate,
respiratory rate, oxygen consumption, and even decreases blood pressure.
