A study by the Hacettepe
University in Turkey found that an eight-week mindfulness meditation program
reduced the patients’ fear of physical movement, a phobia that limits their
daily activities due to concerns of prompting another heart attack. Patients
were given instructions to spend 15 minutes daily focusing on their breathing
and awareness of the present moment in a comfortable chair with their backs
straight and eyes closed. Those who completed the eight-week program
experienced less fear of movement and an improved quality of life.
According to
study author Dr. Canan Karadaş, the findings suggest that mindfulness
meditation replaces catastrophic thinking with positive thoughts and thus could
be useful in heart patient’s rehabilitation.
Thank you, Dr. Canan Karadaş, for
your insightful study. May more people discover the benefits of meditation and
lead happier, fulfilling lives, in Heaven’s guidance.
