We all know that prevention is better than cure. Washing your hands, getting enough sleep, exercising and taking vitamin C can all help prevent the common cold and flu. But did you know that meditating can also play a part? Meditation changes the stress-based inflammatory response. And reducing your stress levels enhances your general health and increases your ability to not get sick if you are exposed to viruses.

So, get yourself in a comfortable position, take a deep breath in and meditate your way to a stronger immune system.
