Meditation may be among the best ways to reduce acute respiratory infections.
Minimize Stress. This is your body on stress: Certain hormones like adrenalin and cortisol are released. Your heart rate accelerates like a racing engine. Your digestion slows. Major muscle groups get a burst of blood flow, giving them energy and strength (hence the fight-or-flight response). Whew. That's a lot for a body to endure. Ideally, your system's natural relaxation response will return your body back to normal once the perceived "threat" is gone. But chronic stress? That's another story: It can impede this response, putting lots of wear and tear on many of your body's systems. Your immune system, for one, is sadly compromised, making it tougher to fight off germs. (Convinced? Try some meditation to deal with your stress.)
