They were briefed about theSudarshan Kriya, which they experienced also. Sudarshan Kriya uses specific cyclical, rhythmic patterns of breath to bring the mind and body into a relaxed, yet energized state. Its effects have been studied in open and randomized trials, both in healthy and health compromised populations.Research suggests that SKY reduces depression, anxiety, PTSD and stress. It has also been shown to curb addictive behaviours and substance abuse. It significantly increases feelings of well-being, optimism and mental focus and improves emotion regulation. In addition, SKY is associated with enhanced cardio-respiratory function, antioxidant status and immune system function. The practice has even been shown to impact gene expression in short and long term periods, suggesting that the effects of SKY span all levels of the physiology from the DNA within our cells to organ systems. Viewed together, the wide range of documented benefits suggest that SKY may be an efficient tool for rapidly strengthening the mind-body complex
