According to scientific research, when a person is in a relaxed and calm state, the body releases beneficial hormones, enzymes and neurotransmitters (such as acetylcholine) that could help improve blood circulation, increase neurotransmitters and enhance the immune system. On the other hand, a state of anxiety, depression or stress could lead one into experiencing hormonal imbalance, organ malfunction and other health issues.
Meditation trains our mind to reduce negative attachments, eliminate stress and broaden perspective. It makes our mind clear, resilient and calm, and our body flexible and strong. As a result, we become healthier overall.
