The Moment You Begin Positively Relaxing Is the Moment Your Body Chemistry Improves
Here are just a few ways this app will help you:
Anxiety Reduced
Click to view
The release of internal stress hormones causes anxiety symptoms.
Meditation immediately decreases stress hormone release. Each time you relax or meditate you'll become even more calm. The best part is that, over time, stress hormones will remain reduced, even between meditations.
An MRI brain scan study by Sara Lazar, a neuroscientist at Harvard University, has demonstrated a decrease in amygdala size after only 8 weeks of meditation. The amygdala is the part of the brain which triggers the stress response, and as it shrinks, inappropriate triggering of stress is reduced.

University of Montreal scientists have shown that meditation also increases serotonin levels in the brain. Low levels of serotonin are linked to depression.

Blood Pressure Controlled

When stressed—whether because of an exam, a traffic jam, or an impending bill—the body initiates its ‘fight or flight’ response and begins producing extra adrenaline. Adrenaline is a powerful hormone that increases heart rate and force, tightens vessels, and delivers increased blood pressure and blood flow to the muscles.
In short bursts, this is fine. But when experience over an extended period of time, the effects can be harmful.
The adverse effects of adrenaline include increased blood pressure, narrowing and eventually hardening of the arteries, anxiety symptoms and panic attacks, tremor, increased cardiac arrhythmias, and increased risk of heart attack and stroke or brain hemorrhage.
There are many studies linking stress to real health disadvantages. The Canadian Institute of Health Research recently studied 12,461 people admitted to hospital with their first heart attack and linked emotional distress or an anger episode happening just prior to the onset of emergency symptoms.

Blood Sugar Improved

Stress hormones, including cortisol, increase blood sugar, regardless of how much sugar a person consumes, because they mobilise liver stores in preparation to fuel any fight or flight responses.
Positive guided meditation decreases blood sugar levels by decreasing the release of stress hormones. Reduced blood sugar levels prevents the onset of diabetes and improves the symptoms of existing diabetes.

Blood Clotting Reduced

The stress response increases clotting tendency. Not good news for cardiac or stroke risk.
The stress response has been perfected over millions of years. Experience has taught us that fight and flight responses are often accompanied by injury risks and blood loss. So, in preparation for these possibilities stress causes an increase in blood clotting.
In a world of sabretooth tigers, that’s all well and good. But the stressors of the modern world—like dropped phone calls and slow internet connections—rarely require such things.
Positive guided meditation decreases stress thoughts, quickly reversing increased clotting tendency, protecting meditators from cardiac disease, thrombosis (spontaneous blood clots), TIAs (transient ischaemic attacks) and stroke.

Immunity Boosted

After just a few minutes of positive relaxation, release of the hormone cortisol drops. Cortisol is well known to suppress immune function.
Heart Math Studies show the effect of stress thoughts v. positive thoughts on the concentrations of oro-pharyngeal IgA, the first line of immune defence in respiratory infections. The graph below shows how, within only a matter of minutes, positive thinkers have immune system advantages and are more protected against infections.
After 8 weeks of positive relaxation, studies show improved speed and magnitude of the immune response, reducing an individuals susceptibility to infections, while also reducing the need for antibiotic use.

Digestion Improved

When under stress, your body is preparing for fight or flight, that’s all. In a perceived life or death situation, your body’s only priority is staying alive.
The fight or flight response has been honed over the millennia to increase the chances of survival from wild animal attack. And in order to improve those chances, many body functions are reprioritised. Digestion is not required for fight or flight, so is de-prioritised. Blood is redistributed away from the digestive system, allowing up to a 300% increase in blood flow to the muscles, in preparation for any increased activity there.
This isn’t extra blood; the resources are being directed away from ‘non-essential processes’.
And while any 'stress situation' is dealt with, digestion along with many other 'non-essential' caretaker systems are essentially turned down—or even off.
Even though all the sabretooth tigers are long gone, and life threatening situations are no longer a regular event for many of us, chronic modern stressors still disrupt body maintenance systems in exactly the same way.
Positive meditation decreases the effects of stress, aiding many internal systems, including digestion, to function comfortably and optimally once more.

Tissue Repair Fortified

Another of the 'non-essential' maintenance departments which are turned down when we are stressed is tissue repair.
A recent study by Sovereign Insurance Company has highlighted the link between stress and premature aging.
By mobilising the hormones that look after your cells the best, you can now stay younger for longer by using regular positive meditation.

Sleep is to be found on the other side of relaxation. If an individual is too stressed to relax, (mind racing etc.) sleep often eludes them.
Positive Guided Meditation settles and re-trains the mind how to easily relax to sleep. Meditation boosts melatonin levels by an average of 98%. Melatonin is prescribed for the treatment of insomnia. Were you aware that you can make your own?
In addition, bedtime is an excellent time to meditate because healthy relaxation hormones will bathe through your tissues all night, activating all those maintenance departments, for optimal health.

Energy Revitalised

Stress is a major factor in chronic fatigue. Stress ensures the body is constantly preparing for ‘fight or flight’ by increasing the blood flow to your muscles by up to 300%, which can increase muscular tension, blood pressure, and heart rate. All of this preparation uses up a lot of energy.
As stress hormones reduce, ‘fight or flight’ turns off, releasing that energy for you to enjoy in more useful ways.

Reactivating Good Health Starts Today
When stress occurs, it activates your natural ‘fight or flight’ response. This ancient system preps you to fight or run, but these days it’s often an unhelpful response that puts unnecessary strain on your physical and emotional well-being.
This can lead to breakdowns in the body, even resulting in illness when body repair systems are compromised.
Reset Your Balance
The Thought Waves Pro app will help you to reactivate your Parasympathetic Nervous System (PNS) so you can relax, unwind, and let loose of stress, anxiety or tension, either preventing illness or helping you to heal inside and out.
