Meditation
Reduce Asthma Symptoms By Practicing Meditation!
|
Meditation is
one activity that can give you many health advantages at the
same time, physical health, mental and mind health, emotional
and spiritual health. According to wikipedia, meditation is
practices done by a sole practitioner without much, if any,
external aid, often for the purpose of self-transformation. Here
in this article we are going to look at how meditation could
help you to reduce asthma symptoms.
Meditation reduces
muscles tension by decreasing stress response. Deep breathing,
which is the main activity in practicing meditation, increases
oxygen circulation to muscles, making your muscles to loosen.
Doing frequent meditation will help people with high blood
pressure, high cholesterol, and asthma, cause stress is one of
the cause of these diseases. |
Meditation also helps to
strengthen immune system, improve digestive and lymph function, which at
the end will improve energy level. For asthma patient, stressed
condition could trigger asthma. Practicing meditation will help them to
get relaxed, and this condition will reduce the risk of asthma attack.
How To Do Meditation
|
Everybody can do
meditation everywhere, to every purposes. I'll discuss here two
major meditation techniques, which are,
Meditation with
Concentration
Meditation by focusing
mind and attention to one specific object: your own breath,
certain picture or candle lights, a voice, or even repetitive
motion. This mind focusing is a way to keep the mind still, to
enable us to find clarity and a higher consciousness. Praying,
progressive relaxation, transcendental meditation (TM) are few
of many examples of meditation with concentration.
Meditation
with Mindfulness
It is when we, with
full awareness, are opening our mind to the sensation flow,
feeling, mind, voices, and anything else come across our mind,
without judging it on purpose. We can do meditation with
mindfulness by sitting peacefully and just witnessing everything
that come to us, without giving any reaction or letting our mind
involved on it. |
|
Instead of focusing only to
one specific thing like meditation with concentration, we open our mind
just like a wide angle lens. Including in this technique are zen, yoga,
Tao, Tai Chi, Chinese calligraphy or even Japanese tea ritual.
Whichever technique you choose, it is recommended to do it with a
trainer or by joining a meditation club. Or.... you might want to learn
and practice meditation from these resources...

listeners to linger over any given image or rearrange her words
and phrases into something that works more effectively. Imagery
designed to help reduce swollen linings in the lungs, dissolve
mucous, and loosen tightened muscle bands in the airways; to
help neutralize the histamine response in the mast cells; to
reduce anxiety; to help the listener feel more cushioned. Side B
is affirmations.
