Meditation Staves Off Loneliness and Disease

Forty healthy adults were divided into two groups—one group attended an eight-week course in mindfulness meditation, an ancient practice that focuses on creating awareness of the present moment, while the other group did not.

Result:
The meditation group reported lower levels of loneliness (a risk factor for death) and had lower levels of C-reactive protein and pro-inflammatory gene expression (which contribute to cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases and cancer).

Mindfulness meditation is taught throughout the US.

Al, my daughter has often sent me copies of your posts. In the past I used to just delete. But I asked her to re sent your post.

Thank you for your concern.

Helen #30:

That is a very sick and deluded man who had raped your cousin. Four years is way too short of a prison sentence for such a brutal crime and this guy should be in prison still.

Lucy #31:

Anyone can be a star if they decide to shine.

Mark #32:

I think it took real courage to make that addmission and to recognize the problem. Nobody can change yesterday, but you can change by not scaring or verbally abusing your wife or any other women anymore. And that is a milestone of progress right there, at least I think so.
