ditation may strengthen thinking skills and help to stave off aging-related=
mental decline, according to a new study of older adults with early signs =
of memory problems. Most of us past the age of 40 are aware that our minds =
and, in particular, memories begin to sputter as the years pass. Familiar n=
ames and words no longer spring readily to mind, and car keys acquire the p=
ower to teleport into jacket pockets where we could not possibly have left =
them. Some weakening in mental function appears to be inevitable as we age.=
But emerging science suggests that we might be able to slow and mitigate t=
he decline by how we live and, in particular, whether and how we move our b=
odies. Past studies have found that people who run, weight train, dance, pr=
actice tai chi, or regularly garden have a lower risk of developing dementi=
a than people who are not physically active at all. There also is growing e=
vidence that combining physical activity with meditation might intensify th=
e benefits of both pursuits. In an interesting study that I wrote about rec=
ently, for example, people with depression who meditated before they went f=
or a run showed greater improvements in their mood than people who did eith=
er of those activities alone. But many people do not have the physical capa=
city or taste for running or other similarly vigorous activities.</p> <p st=
yle=3D"font-size: 7.8px">So for the new study, which was published in April=
in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease, researchers at the University of Ca=
lifornia, Los Angeles, and other institutions decided to test whether yoga,=
a relatively mild, meditative activity, could alter people's brains and fo=
rtify their ability to think. They began by recruiting 29 middle-aged and o=
lder adults from the Los Angeles area who told the researchers that they we=
re anxious about the state of their memories and who, during evaluations at=
the university, were found to have mild cognitive impairment, a mental con=
dition that can be a precursor to eventual dementia. The volunteers also un=
derwent a sophisticated type of brain scan that tracks how different parts =
of the brain communicate with one another. The volunteers then were divided=
into two groups. One began a well-established brain-training program that =
involves an hour a week of classroom time and a series of mental exercises =
designed to bolster their memory that volunteers were asked to practice at =
home for about 15 minutes a day. The others took up yoga. For an hour each =
week, they visited the U.C.L.A. campus to learn Kundalini yoga, which invol=
ves breathing exercises and meditation as well as movement and poses. The r=
esearchers chose this form of yoga largely because people who are out of sh=
ape or new to yoga generally find it easy to complete the classes. The yoga=
group also was taught a type of meditation known as Kirtan Kriya that invo=
lves repeating a series of sounds â?? a mantra â?? while simult=
aneously â??dancingâ?=9D with repetitive hand movements. They w=
ere asked to meditate in this way for 15 minutes every day, so that the tot=
al time commitment was equivalent for both groups. The volunteers practiced=
their programs for 12 weeks. Then they returned to the university's lab fo=
r another round of cognitive tests and a second brain scan. By this time, a=
ll of the men and women were able to perform significantly better on most t=
ests of their thinking.</p> <p style=3D"font-size: 7.8px">But only those wh=
o had practiced yoga and meditation showed improvements in their moods &aci=
rc;?? they scored lower on an assessment of potential depression than those=
in the brain-training group â?? and they performed much better on a =
test of visuospatial memory, a type of remembering that is important for ba=
lance, depth perception and the ability to recognize objects and navigate t=
he world. The brain scans in both groups displayed more communication now b=
etween parts of their brains involved in memory and language skills. Those =
who had practiced yoga, however, also had developed more communication betw=
een parts of the brain that control attention, suggesting a greater ability=
now to focus and multitask. In effect, yoga and meditation had equaled and=
then topped the benefits of 12 weeks of brain training. â??We were a=
bit surprised by the magnitudeâ?=9D of the brain effects, said Dr. H=
elen Lavretsky, a professor of psychiatry at U.C.L.A. who oversaw the study=
How, physiologically, yoga and meditation had uniquely changed the volunt=
eers' brains is impossible to know from this study, although reductions in =
stress hormones and anxiety are likely to play a substantial role, she said=
â??These were all people worried about the state of their minds,&ac=
irc;?=9D she pointed out. Movement also increases the levels of various bio=
chemicals in the muscles and brains that are associated with improved brain=
health, she said. Whether other forms of yoga and meditation or either act=
ivity on its own might likewise bulk up the brain remains a mystery, she sa=
id. But there may be something especially potent, she said, about combining=
yoga with the type of meditation practiced in this study, during which peo=
ple were not completely still.</p> <p style=3D"font-size: 11.5px"> </=
