Anxiety, stress should sit meditation how long?

A recent study by the American Psychological Association found that practicing meditation actually brought about physical and psychological effects for people with anxiety disorders.!

These findings suggest that meditation can become a top priority in treating anxiety to protect them from physical problems.

"One hour after meditation, the stress on the blood vessels of the volunteers was reduced. This will help relieve stress on the brain and kidney and help prevent diseases like high blood pressure. "

Stress and anxiety have been shown to affect the body, increase inflammation, cause heart problems and dysfunction.

Patients can take multiple medications for each disease, such as antidepressants or aspirin, to maintain heart health.

However, the Michigan team decided to measure how meditation affects the body and whether it was a viable treatment.

14 people with normal but high levels of anxiety were involved in the study. These people will be tested for cardiovascular function - including heart rate, blood pressure, blood pressure in the aorta and elasticity of the artery before and after 60 minutes of meditation.

Meditation is done by volunteers who focus on the breath and are aware of their own thoughts.

The results suggest that simple intervention may also provide measurable improvements in anxiety.

Researchers said most volunteers continued to meditate after the first meditation and their anxiety scores dropped more than a week later.
