Meditating Towards Weight Loss

Posted at 03:32 PM on August 06, 2009

I found this interesting post on the Runner's World website:


"Try High-Tech Meditation For Weight Loss

We allrecognize that we don't always eat because we're hungry; sometimes weeat for "emotional reasons," for lack of a more precise term. In thisstudy, Italian researchers used "new technologies" like mp3 players andvirtual reality systems to assist obese women with emotional eatingproblems. Some of the subjects were also taught more traditional"imagination" meditation techniques. All the approaches worked--ie, allthe women lost weight--but the high-tech approaches worked the best.Source: Journal Of The American Dietetic Association."
