Life with Chronic Disease: Holiday meditation

 In the Sept. 28 edition of the Journal of the American Heart Association, research is presented that indicates that meditation may have a role in reducing heart disease. Dozens of studies show that meditation improves an array of conditions connected to heart disease- stress, anxiety, depression, poor sleep quality, and high blood pressure. It may also help people stop smoking.
