Reversal of
Aging

Biological age measures how old a person is
physiologically. As a group, long-term meditators who had been
practicing Transcendental Meditation for more than 5 years were
physiologically 12 years younger than their chronological age, as
measured by reduction of blood pressure, and better near-point vision
and auditory discrimination. Short-term meditators were
physiologically 5 years younger than their chronological age. The
study controlled for the effects of diet and exercise.
From: The Effects of the
Transcendental Meditation and TM-Sidhi program on the aging process,
International Journal of Neuroscience 16 (1): 53-58,
1982.
