Meditative Cures, Reflexology and Mindfulness

Psychological risk factors including anxiety and depression are clearly factors that can have a substantial effect on the heart. Stress can affect and increase the risk factors for heart disease and high blood pressure (BP), especially if coupled with physical inactivity and a person being overweight.

Based on the latest clinical findings, it is found that meditation can drastically reduce the risk of heart diseases, stroke, and even death by approximately 50%.

The ultimate goal of meditation is to find “Balance” within our body.

When you’re experiencing stress or pain from any part of the body, it’s normally due to the hormonal changes and neurotransmitter imbalance. A powerful cure for this situation is meditation.

Why is meditation so powerful? The secret lies in the practice of mindfulness.Mindfulness is a term that refers to being able to focus your awareness on the present moment and everything around you, both internally and externally.

The benefits of mindfulness are endless. Studies have demonstrated that people who practice mindfulness regularly are more likely to live longer, have healthier hearts, stronger immune system, and unlikely to be obese.
Another alternative therapy for heart health is reflexology.

It’s not necessary to visit the reflexology centres to reap the benefits as you can easily apply these self-relaxing techniques yourself at any time on your hands and feet, provided that you know how to do it properly.
