As mindfulness meditation and yoga have become mainstream and more extensively studied, growing evidence suggests multiple psychological and physical benefits of these mindfulness exercises, as well as for similar practices like tai chi and qi gong.
Systematic reviews and meta-analyses analyzing hundreds of research studies suggest that mindfulness-based interventions help decrease anxiety, depression, stress, and pain, and help improve general health, mental health, and quality of life. These practices also appear to reduce inflammation and increase immune response.

The dummy meant to link to a youtube video, but he left off the hostname part of the URL and just cut-n-pasted the youtube identifier, so your browser automatically adds the soylent hostname. Do a google search on the part after the hostname and it will take you to the intended youtube video. Its not worth it though, just a weak sauce ad for some tv show.

I think a rickrolling would have been a lot more adequate.
