| STRESS IN PREGNANCY: Being pregnant today can be a very stressful time in a woman 's life. We are living in a very fast-paced society, and as women, we are inundated daily with multi-tasking routines with work, home and family. Clinical studies have shown that 75 percent of illnesses are caused by stress which is brought on by the stress hormone, Cortizol. But these clinical studies also found that Cortizol was dramatically reduced and higher levels of Melatonin were found in patients who practiced meditation for at least 15 minutes daily. Studies have further linked high stress levels with pregnancy complications such as high blood pressure, which can lead to preeclampsia and other complications such as preterm labor. These studies found that meditation along with quiet time with soft meditative relaxation music in pregnancy can help to dramatically reduce these complications in pregnant women. Just imagine, with this simple knowledge, the number of pregnancy complications that could be dramatically reduced if only more women were aware of and practiced the healthful benefits of meditation and music therapy during pregnancy, positively affecting both mother and baby. HORMONAL BALANCE: Cortizol is one of the most violent immunodepressants in the glucocorticoid family, a class of stress hormones. Melatonin, on the other hand, is a hormone that induces feelings of calm and even helps with sleep. Being pregnant, you've probably realized what a huge impact hormones can play on your body. It has been shown that meditation reduces the levels of the stress hormone, Cortisol, and increases the levels of Melatonin, a hormone that helps to induce calm and sleep. Meditation is an ancient practice that has been used in practically all the religions of the world to include Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism and Buddhism, but in today's society it is much more than a mystical Eastern religious practice. It is used widely in alternative medicine practices in the East, and our Western society is coming to understand and use this timeless knowledge in our own society today. Many hospitals today are using the practice of meditation in conjunction with Western medicine for their patients, especially in the field of OB/GYN. There are actual meditation rooms available in many hospitals in the OB/GYN departments. Just 15 minutes a day can do wonders for your mind and body and for the healthy development of your baby. Because if you're feeling good, so will your baby. "The body truly is the servant of the mind." . |

| Time Magazine – Aug 4, 2003 "People who meditate these days come from all walks of life and aren’t necessarily weird New Agers or pretentious actors. Students, lawyers, West Point cadets, athletes, prisoners, and government officials all meditate. It’s supposed to help depression, control pain, increase longevity, slow down cancers, invigorate the immune system, and significantly reduce blood pressure." "Not only do studies show that meditation is boosting their immune system, but brain scans suggest that it may be rewiring their brains to reduce stress. It’s recommended by more and more physicians as a way to prevent, slow or at least control the pain of chronic diseases like heart conditions, AIDS, cancer and infertility. As you read, meditation provides many benefits even when done by a beginner. |
