’ve been dealing with a lot of stress and anxiety lately, and someone suggested I try meditation. They specifically mentioned something called "So Hum meditation." I’m curious about what makes it unique and what So Hum meditation benefits I might experience if I stick with it. For a little context, my mind feels like it’s always running on overdrive. Even when I sit down to relax, I can’t stop thinking about work, errands, or things I forgot to do. This has started to affect my sleep—I wake up in the middle of the night, and it’s hard to fall back asleep. Would So Hum meditation benefits include helping with overthinking or improving sleep patterns? I also struggle with physical tension, especially in my shoulders and neck, which I’ve heard can be connected to stress. If I practice this meditation, will it help release some of that tension over time? Are there specific So Hum meditation benefits related to physical health, or is it mainly for calming the mind? Another thing I’d like to know is how long it takes to see results. If I practice daily, how soon can I expect to notice the So Hum meditation benefits? I’m a beginner when

Doctors’ responses

So Hum meditation is a simple yet profound practice that focuses on the repetition of the mantra “So Hum,” meaning “I am that.” This meditation aligns your breath with the mantra, promoting mindfulness and a deeper sense of connection. Benefits for Stress and Anxiety: Practicing So Hum meditation can calm your overactive mind by directing your focus to your breath and mantra. It helps reduce overthinking, allowing you to relax and find mental clarity. Regular practice lowers cortisol levels, which alleviates stress and promotes emotional balance. Improved Sleep: So Hum meditation encourages relaxation, which can improve sleep quality. By calming your mind before bed, it helps you fall asleep faster and reduces nighttime awakenings. Physical Tension: Stress often manifests as physical tension, especially in areas like the shoulders and neck. So Hum meditation promotes relaxation in the body by reducing stress signals from the brain. Over time, this can help release chronic tension. How Soon to See Results: You may notice initial benefits, like a sense of calm, within a week of daily practice. Long-term benefits, including reduced anxiety and better sleep, typically emerge after a month of consistent practice. Start with 10–15 minutes daily and gradually increase the duration.
