MEDITATION BEFORE OR AFTER AN AEROBIC WORKOUT REDUCES STRESS SIGNIFICANTLY

A new study published in the American Journal of Health Promotion claims that adding 10 minutes of meditation before or after a brief walk significantly reduces anxiety in university students. The study which involved 110 students in their early 20s, also showed that a 10-minute walk by itself did not result in significant changes in their anxiety, which suggests that meditation before of after aerobic exercise can help reduce anxiety levels more than just physical exercise alone.
