Cortisol Level Modulated by Integrative Meditation in a Dose‐dependent Fashion
Abstract
Prior research has shown that an additional training session immediately after acute stress decreases release of salivary cortisol in a college student group trained with 5-day integrative body-mind training (IBMT) in comparison with a control group given the same amount of relaxation training. However, 5 days of training does not influence the basal secretion of cortisol. The current study seeks to extend this finding and determine whether increasing amounts of IBMT will decrease the basal cortisol level, suggesting reduced stress to daily activities. Thirty-four Chinese undergraduates were randomly assigned either to 4 weeks of IBMT or a relaxation control. Salivary cortisol levels at baseline before training and the three stages of a stress intervention test (i.e. rest, stress and additional 20-min practice) after 2 and 4 weeks of training were assessed. The basal cortisol level decreased significantly in the IBMT but not in relaxation group after 2 and 4 weeks of training. An additional IBMT practice session immediately after acute stress produced significantly lower cortisol release for the IBMT group in comparison with relaxation at weeks 2 and 4. The results indicate that IBMT produces a change in the basal endocrine system and larger acute effects as the dose of training increases.

Short-term iBMt improves self-regulation ability and reduces stress compared to an active control group given the same amount of relaxation training (RT).
“our previous randomized controlled trials (Rcts) have shown that short-term integrative Body-Mind training (iBMt)-a form of open-monitoring mindfulness meditation (see details in 2.2), improves self-regulation ability and reduces stress compared to an active control group given the same amount of relaxation training (Rt) (Fan, tang, & Posner, 2014;Pawlow & Jones, 2005;scholey et al., 2009;tang, 20”

5-10 sessions of training produced functional and structural changes in brain self-regulation networks including anterior cingulate and adjacent prefrontal cortices and striatum, reduced cortisol and negative moods, enhanced testosterone, immune function, and positive moods, and improved quality of life.
“For example, 5-10 sessions of training produced functional and structural changes in brain self-regulation networks including anterior cingulate and adjacent prefrontal cortices and striatum, reduced cortisol and negative moods, enhanced testosterone, immune function, and positive moods, and improved quality of life (Fan et al., 2014;Mehta, Mor, Yap, & Prasad, 2015;Pawlow & Jones, 2005;scholey et”

These positive brain, physiological, and behavioral changes were accompanied by the interaction of both central and autonomic nervous systems.
“Moreover, these positive brain, physiological, and behavioral changes were accompanied by the interaction of both central and autonomic nervous systems (Fan et al., 2014;scholey et al., 2009;tang, 2017;tang et al., 2007;2009).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
