Meditation
Stilling the mind

Meditation is perhaps one of the most highly recognized practice for stress management. The effects are very well documented and has been practiced for thousands of years in the east. Yoga (which means "union") has many breathing techniques "Pranayama" for meditation. Meditation effects the physiological and neurological (body and mind) with decreased heart beat, blood pressure, slower and deeper breathing and in the mind the brain wave patterns all slowed and the hemispheres of the brain are balanced.

Traditionally meditation is taught as a discipline to quieten the mind and there are many techniques that can be learnt to get the mind "chatter" out of the way so that the thoughts become still and eventually nonexistent.

The daily practice of mediation is recommended. Some people have a lot of difficulty getting out of the way. However most research suggests that it is essential for a stress management.

Talking about the "Om" or rather chanting the Om is also a proven way not only to still the mind but also the resonance of the Om inside the body enhances the function of the meridians and the organs. Try it now for five minutes and see how you feel!

Benedick has created an online visualization meditation called Light Language.

Scientists study it. Doctors recommend it. Millions of Americans - many of whom don't even own crystals - practice it every day. Why? Because meditation works (...) Meanwhile, the evidence from meditation researchers continues to mount. One study, for example, shows that women who meditate and use guided imagery have higher levels of the immune cells known to combat tumors in the breast. This comes after many studies have established that meditation can significantly reduce blood pressure. Given that 60% of doctor visits are the result of stress-related conditions, this isn't surprising. Nor is it surprising that meditation can sometimes be used to replace Viagra. But meditation does more than reduce stress, bring harmony and increase focus. As the Beatles demonstrated in 1968 when they visited the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in his Himalayan ashram (they had met him in London in 1967), it can also give you much needed gravitas. (...) Goldie Hawn, who says she has been practicing for 31 years, has a dedicated meditation room in her house filled with her favorite crystals, flowers, incense and pictures of the Dalai Lama and Mother Teresa. She meditates twice a day for at least 30 minutes. "How do you learn to witness your destructive emotions?" she asks. "You can only do this by being able to sit quietly and quiet your mind." More recent devotees are decisively noncrystal. Eileen Harrington, who runs the hard-boiled consumer-fraud group of the Federal Trade Commission in Washington, invited a meditation speaker to give a presentation after 9/11. Roughly half her staff is still at it. Bill Ford, the head of Ford Motors, meditates, as does a former chief of England's top-secret MI-5. Hillary Clinton has talked about meditating, and the Gores are converts. "We both believe in regular prayer, and we often pray together. But meditation—as distinguished from prayer—I highly recommend it," says the man who nearly became our President.
