Scientific research has shown the vast benefits that individuals attain from meditative practices. A recent study also found meditation to be more effective for women versus men.
Sleep
Getting enough quality sleep at the right times, is as essential to survival as food and water. Sleep affects almost every type of system in your body (brain, heart, lungs, metabolism, immune function, mood, and disease resistance).
Social Interactions
Social relationships have as much impact on your physical health as physical activity, blood pressure, smoking and obesity. Studies have found a 50% increase in survival rates of people with robust positive social relationships.
