5 Scientific Reasons To Practice Mindfulness Meditation

Living our best life requires an investment in our health. It requires a lifelong commitment to practices that keep the mind and body replenished and nourished for the increasing demands of this world. It is of great concern that The World Health Organization (WHO) predicts that depression is to become the second leading cause of global disease by 2020.

Here are five compelling scientific reasons why mindfulness is not just a fad, but will continue to revolutionize the wellness industry.

1. Enhanced immune function.

2. Parts of the brain correlated to positive emotion are activated.

3. Growth in higher-functioning regions of the brain.

4. Protection against age-related DNA damage.

5. Overall mental health is improved.
