Passive Meditation Techniques and Atheletic Performance: A Differential Effect of Different on Cardio respiratory Neurophysiological Parameters

This book examines the role of passive meditation techniques rooted in traditional Yogic practices in enhancing the athletic performance of female team sport athletes. It explores how meditation interventions such as breathing meditation, mantra chanting, and visualization influence key cardiorespiratory and psycho-neurological variables, including resting heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, alpha brain wave activity and mental skills. Through a systematic experimental approach, the book highlights the potential of meditation to improve physiological recovery, mental relaxation, and attentional regulation in athletes. By integrating yogic traditions with modern sports science, it offers valuable insights for researchers, coaches, and sports practitioners interested in holistic athlete development.
