Backup for what I have experienced - that meditation supports overall health

Hi Neighbours, I know when I am meditating regularly I feel better. I was really interested to read that researchers have found evidence that frequent meditation over several years may help alter the human gut – boosting the body’s immune system and reducing the risk of anxiety, depression and heart disease.
