In 2009, researchers at Harvard Medical School discovered that the simple act of becoming relaxed has surprising health benefits. In addition to the obvious psychological effects of relieving stress and mental tension, they found that deep relaxation – including techniques such as meditation – if practiced regularly, can strengthen the immune system and produce a host of other medically valuable physiological changes. The Harvard researchers called these changes “the relaxation effect”, a phenomenon that could be just as powerful as any medical drug but without the side-effects.
