Meditation as an alternative mind-body therapy. It is a popular intervention to improve mental and physical health. People have been meditating for thousands of years, often as part of a spiritual practice. But in more recent years, meditation has become a popular way to help people manage their stress and improve their overall well-being- and a wealth of research shows it’s effective. Psychologists have found that meditation changes our brain and biology in positive ways, improving mental and physical health. This paper is an attempt to provide a comprehensive view of the present state of the research in meditation and health. Effects of meditation on human physiology (physical health) such as heart beat, blood pressure, metabolism, cortical activity, skin resistance are discussed. Impact of meditation on human mental health such as relaxation, systematic desensitization, release of repressed memory, perception, memory, stress, depression, anxiety, sleep disturbance, un-stressing and so on are also discussed. Finally, major conceptual and issues that needs serious attention from researchers in this area for future research is addressed.
