Monday, 13 August 2018 deprivation. With training, understanding and imparting of knowledge the Yogic and Vedic lifestyle made a person ' s life relatively stress free.
Meditation is an important aspect of yogic and Vedic lifestyle. Recent studies done using functional MRI have shown that people who regularly meditate have enhanced prefrontal cortical regulation and reduced bilateral amygdale activity. Amygdale activity is typically associated with negative affective states.
So meditation can cause changes in the brain. At hormonal level meditation appears to improve endocrinal balance towards positive response. People who meditate regularly show higher levels of DHEA and lower cortisol levels which indicate that their body is taking and dealing with everything in a positive manner.
During many meditations, visualisation is an important technique. Positive visualisation will cause positive changes in the brain and a positive hormonal response whereas negative visualisation during meditation will cause negative changes in the brain and negative hormonal response.
Telomeres are structures found at the end of chromosomes. Telomeres are the caps at the end of each strand of DNA that prevents the end of the chromosome from deterioration or from fusion with neighbouring chromosomes. In other words, telomeres protect DNA and chromosomes from damage. Telomere length starts increasing within 28 days of regular meditation. In fact, it is telomere length which defines the age of a person so meditation can increase the age of a person.
