Transcendental Meditation decreases the factors which give rise to depression. It enhances coherence in brain functioning,  reduces cortisol, the stress hormone, levels in the body and decreases insomnia. A study was published in the Journal of Clinical Psychology which showed a reduction in trait anxiety, fear and worry as a result of practicing the Transcendental Meditation technique. A study in the Journal of Behavioral Medicine showed that the technique has both acute and long-term effects on significantly reducing cortisol levels in the body.
