TIME AND EFFECTS DURING MEDITATION
MEDITATING FOR:
3 MINUTES Increases blood circulation. This distributes the neuroendocrine secretions throughout the body.
7 MINUTES Brain frequency waves start shifting from Beta waves to Alpha (calming) waves and can continue even into deep relaxation Delta waves. At the same time the electromagnetic field around the body increases in strength.
11 MINUTES The sympathetic and parasympathetic parts of the brain become balanced and produce energy.
22 MINUTES Anxiety-producing thoughts in the subconscious start to clear.
31 MINUTES Total balance in the endocrinological system is achieved. This will affect the whole mind, your aura, and the body’s internal elements (the tattvas: earth, water, fire, air, either). This will be reflected in changes in mood and behavior.
62 MINUTESYour subconscious “shadow mind” and your positive (outer) projection are integrated.
2 ½ HOURS Holds the change in the subconscious mind throughout the cycle of the day.
