Transcendental Meditation increases DHEA-S

When you are feeling threatened and not in control, stress causes your brain to stimulate the release of two powerful hormones, cortisol and adrenaline. These chemicals cause the release of high-energy fats and clotting agents into the bloodstream. Ultimately, these blood-clotting agents reach the interior walls of blood vessels, which provide a foundation for cholesterol deposits and other health complications. This unhealthy series of events can usually be avoided by practicing TM regularly. Insurance company records, for example, show a much lower incidence of physician visits by meditators than non-meditators. A study utilizing TM and other aspects of Maharishi Ayur-Veda showed 86 percent fewer admissions to the hospital for illness and surgery.

There is more compelling evidence that TM reduces stress by lowering stress hormones. Researchers at Maharishi University of Management in collaboration with the University of Iowa School of Medicine studied the effects of Transcendental Meditation on hormones affected by chronic stress. Results were published in the spring of 1997 in the prestigious journal Psychoneuroendocrinology. This research demonstrates that TM decreases levels of hormones affected by chronic stress.54 TM protects against stress by directly affecting the stress hormone response cycle. The hormones created by stress return to a balanced state more quickly when a person is practicing TM. The nervous system becomes habituated to a state of balance, and creates the health effects of a balanced nervous and endocrine system. As science catches up to ancient health and healing techniques, there will be scientific validation of how real healing actually works.

Tremendous benefits from something intangible translate into actual physical and mental health benefits. All the research on TM conclusively proves not only that there is a mind body connection, but also a deeper connection that the mind is actually in every cell of the body. This type of health technique is complete because it prevents as well as cures.

What was previously considered to be the normal aging process leading to heart attacks, high blood pressure and arteriosclerosis need not be so if stress management techniques such as TM are employed.
