ABSTRACT:
In the present global scenario there are endless numbers of people suffering from disorders related to the heart. The objective of this project is to study and determine the reversal effects of Preksha Meditation on disorders in Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) patients. At present the therapy for CAD patients involves the use of steroid drugs which are synthetic in nature and can lead to adverse side effects. In order to study the role of Preksha Meditation as a drugless alternative medicine, a residential camp of 25 CAD patients were setup at a yoga centre. These patients were given regular meditation classes by trained instructors. During the camp, the parameters monitored are: Pulse Rate, Blood Pressure, Weight and Respiration Rate. At the end of the camp, a qualitative comparison of the measured parameters was done using the pre-camp and post-camp data. Graphical representation method shall be used to suggest the result of the study.
