Disease & Chanting
Chanting has physical, mental and social benefits according to research. Physically, the rhythmic tones of chanting create neurological and psycholinguistic effects that produce curative chemicals in the brain. It also vibrates the bones, muscles and fluids, balancing brainwaves and increasing temperature. Mentally, chanting relaxes the body, manages the mind, and produces coherence between brain functions. Socially, group chanting creates a collective resonance effect that magnifies individual benefits. Research shows chanting can regulate physiological functions, boost immunity, reduce inflammation and complications from diseases like cancer, diabetes and heart conditions.
Cancer and Asanas
Regular yoga practice can help heal and transform those affected by cancer in several ways. Yoga postures stretch muscles and ligaments, activate the parasympathetic nervous system to induce relaxation, improve blood circulation, and tone muscles. This helps activate the body's self-healing mechanisms. Over six months, yoga can induce physical changes like increased flexibility and respiratory efficiency. It can also produce psychological benefits like reduced depression and a more relaxed outlook. Mentally, yoga helps control the mind and reduce negative thoughts. On a spiritual level, it can improve awareness, induce meditative states, and provide a sense of peace and purpose.
Disease and Meditation
Meditative techniques can produce mental, emotional, and physical benefits. They work by changing consciousness, which alters the energy field and thereby changes the physical body. Specific techniques like mantra repetition and breath awareness can lift the mind from an ordinary to expanded state of awareness over time. Research shows meditation can positively impact brain structure, immune function, heart health, and disease management. It may reduce stress, anxiety, depression and blood pressure while improving focus, creativity and overall well-being.
Disease and Pranayama
Regular practice of pranayama or yogic breathing techniques over 6 months can have significant physical, psychological, mental, and spiritual benefits. By slowing the breath rate to 6 breaths per minute or less, it induces coherence between the rhythms of various physiological functions like heart rate and blood pressure, which enhances the immune system and reduces inflammation. This coherence also leads to better regulation of blood sugar levels and induces calmness and clarity of mind. Pranayama activates the prefrontal cortex to manage emotional reactions and produce feelings of reduced reactivity, purposeful action, and inner peace. It restores natural rhythms in cells and organs through long-term practice.

Physiology of stress
The document discusses the physiology of stress through several topics:
1) It outlines the autonomic nervous system responses to stress like increased heart rate and blood pressure.
2) It discusses psychological concepts related to stress including eustress (good stress), distress (harmful stress), and coping mechanisms.
3) Some coping mechanisms mentioned are controlling the stress source, limiting demands from others, relaxation techniques, exercise, and social support. Having support from a loved one is especially effective at reducing stress.
Neurobiology of stress
1. The document discusses the neurobiology of stress, including how stress is defined and the physiological stress response pathways in the body. It describes the stress response as involving the nervous, neuroendocrine, and endocrine systems.
2. Key parts of the stress response include the activation of the sympathetic nervous system and HPA axis, resulting in the "fight or flight" response. Prolonged stress can impact various organ systems in the body as target organs.
3. Coping strategies are discussed as ways to potentially attenuate the stress response and reestablish homeostasis, with adaptive coping being more beneficial than maladaptive coping.
Lesson 4 allostasis
Allostasis refers to the body's ability to achieve stability through change by detecting and responding to external stressors. It allows the body to adapt to challenges by inducing a stress response to maintain important functions. Homeostasis aims to maintain a stable internal environment, while allostasis aims to maintain stability in changing external environments through flexible physiological and behavioral changes. Frequent or prolonged activation of the stress response due to numerous stressors can result in allostatic load and eventually allostatic overload, causing long-term damage due to an inability to cope with stressors.
Emotional stability through yoga
This document defines emotions and discusses how yoga and breathing techniques can help regulate emotions. It provides the following key points:
1) Emotions are complex psychological phenomena that occur as people experience life events, and are intense feelings directed at someone or something.
2) Yoga decreases activity in the sympathetic nervous system associated with stress responses, and increases activity in the parasympathetic nervous system associated with relaxation. Research shows yoga can reduce stress, anxiety, depression and improve well-being.
3) Regulated breathing through yoga techniques like pranayama can calm the mind by stimulating the vagus nerve and parasympathetic nervous system, lowering heart rate and blood pressure. This opposes the fight or flight stress
physiological stress and response
This document discusses physiological stress and the body's response. It defines stress as pressures or demands (stressors) that force a response from the body. The stress response is an innate reaction to maintain homeostasis. Stressors can be physical, chemical, biological, or environmental events that disturb homeostasis. The body responds to acute (short-term) and chronic (long-term) stress differently. The nervous, endocrine, and immune systems are involved in the stress response. Repeated exposure to stress hormones can damage brain tissue and increase aging. Stress can indirectly cause physical illness by changing health behaviors like smoking or directly by suppressing the immune system. Both behavioral and physiological factors link stress to disease.
2. Body Response To Stress
The document summarizes key aspects of stress, including:
1. Stress occurs when there is a perceived mismatch between demands placed on an individual and their ability to cope.
2. There are two main pathways by which stress responses occur in the body - the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal cortex pathway and the hypothalamic-autonomic nervous system-adrenal medulla pathway.
3. The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal cortex pathway involves the hypothalamus signaling the pituitary gland to release ACTH, activating the adrenal cortex to secrete corticosteroids into the bloodstream, producing physiological effects like increased heart rate.
