Health is commonly defined as an organism's ability to efficiently respond to challenges (stressors) and effectively restore and sustain a "state of balance," known as homeostasis. A comprehensive approach to maintaining good health includes increasing self-responsibility for wellness, healthy lifestyle choices, health-promoting diet and a positive mental attitude. For centuries, humans have been aspiring to achieve healthy mind and body all at the same time1. Meditation which has been practiced for thousands of years is an effective means of treating stress and managing pain. Meditation therapy is an activity that calms the mind and keeps it focused on the present. In the meditative state, the mind is not cluttered with thoughts or memories of the past nor is it concerned with future events. Meditation relies on the body’s ability to switch to an alpha (resting) or theta (relaxing) brain wave state, during which the brain’s rhythm slows appreciably and endorphins, the body’s natural pain killers are released. During meditation, metabolism is lowered, resulting in a slower heart rate, decreased blood pressure and slower breathing3.
