Meditation is a powerful technique that bathes the brain in a multitude of brain healthy hormones and neurotransmitters such as cortisol, dehydroepiandrostrone (DHEA), gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA), serotonin, melatonin, and epinephrine. These compounds bring calm, ease stress, boost mood, increase longevity, and help with sleep. Experience this calming and soothing meditation before you go to sleep by visualizing a bright white light scanning across you.
