Most people who begin a meditation practice do so because of stress. They are overwhelmed, anxious, or burning out, and they have heard that meditation can help.

The Science of Forgiveness: Why It Changes Your Body, Not Just Your Mind Resentment has a physiology. When you replay an injury, rehearse a grievance, or mentally return to a betrayal, your body responds as though the event is occurring in real time. The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis activates. Cortisol rises. The
