Description: Article covering meditation and its relationship to the metabolism, autonomic nervous system, endocrine system, and central nervous system.
by Dr. Jooyoung Julia Shin, M.D.    Eastern religious and secular groups, such as the Buddhists, Taoists, and the Indian Yogis have practiced meditation throughout history in order to achieve certain mental and physical ends; these include muscular relaxation and "clearing" the mind, as well as the more esoteric union with  nature or God. For these practitioners, meditation further serves to reduce negative tensions in  both conscious and subconscious realms, and facilitates the integration of an individual into her  or his physical, social and psychological environment. A variety of these ideas were incorporated into the philosophy of the martial arts as they developed in Asia.
