Summary

Effect of Subtle Energy Transmission and Tao Calligraphy Mindfulness Practice on Telomere Length in Peripheral Blood Leukocytes A Follow-up Pilot Study

The goal of this Pilot clinical trial is to learn if a Subtle Energy Transmission and Tao Calligraphy Mindfulness Practice works to increase Telomere Length in Peripheral Blood Leukocytes in adults. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does A Subtle energy transmission and Tao Calligraphy Mindfulness increase Telomere Length in Peripheral Blood Leukocytes in adults?
* Will this increase of Telomere Length in Peripheral Blood Leukocytes in adults be statistically significant? Researchers will compare the length of Telomere in peripheral blood Leukocytes at beginning of the mindfulness practices to the length of Telomere in peripheral blood Leukocytes at 3 months and at 9 months of regular daily practices.

Participants will:

* Receive a transmission of Subtle energy at beginning of practices
* Visit the Laboratory for a blood sample taken at beginning, at 3 months and at 9 months of practices.
* Fill the Study Questionnaires at beginning, at 3 months and at 9 months of practices.
* Practice the Mindfulness with Tao Calligraphy daily 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour in the evening.

Interventions

Mindfulness practice with Calligraphy

The unique style of Art Meditation where mindfulness (heightened awareness) is achieved by combination of movement and focus on Chinese Tao Calligraphy while chanting a mantra. The practitioners repeatedly trace the lines of Tao calligraphy with fingers and chant the mantra. This enables them to achieve deep concentration, while maintaining fully alert state. The practice can be done in sitting or standing, depending on the health status and age.
