31%

Inner Engineering practitioners reported 31% lower stress scores than the general population.

Citation: Front. Public Health 2022

A study consisting of 6,892 participants during the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated that Inner Engineering practitioners had lower median stress levels compared to non-meditating controls (low stress vs. medium stress). Additionally, Inner Engineering practitioners had lower anxiety and depression along with higher scores for joy and wellbeing (1). For those who do a daily practice, Inner Engineering has shown to reduce stress by 54% after 8 weeks of practice (2) and has been linked to improved wellbeing and positive work outcomes (3, 4).

Anxiety levels reduced 36% after 6 weeks of Isha Kriya practice.

The practices included with the Inner Engineering program have shown to have significant benefits. Four weeks of Upa Yoga practice has been linked with reduced stress, anxiety, and depression along with improvements in wellbeing (5).

Another practice included with the Inner Engineering Online program is a 15 minute meditation called Isha Kriya. This practice decreased total mood disturbances and negative emotions after one sitting (6). Furthermore, six weeks of Isha Kriya practice resulted in a 36% reduction in self-reported anxiety, including a 48% decrease in those experiencing severe anxiety (7). The eect was stronger for those with depression as six weeks of practice resulted in a 46% reduction including a 50% reduction for those who were initially considered depressed. After six weeks of practice, a majority of those who initially reported depression were no longer considered depressed (7).

41%

Participants reported a 41% reduction in stress after 6 weeks of practicing Shambhavi Mahamudra Kriya.

After completing the Inner Engineering Online program, one can learn the primary practice associated with the Inner Engineering program – Shambhavi Mahamudra Kriya (Shambhavi Kriya). Those practicing Shambhavi Kriya showed significant improvements in both psychological and physiological measures. Daily practice of Shambhavi Kriya has been linked to decreased stress and increased wellbeing (8, 9). After six weeks of practice, stress levels and negative emotions were reduced 41% and 50%, respectively (9). Additional improvements were also observed in relationships, meaning, health, mindfulness, and sleep quality (9).

Meditator autonomic nervous system

In addition to improvements in psychological metrics, regular practice of Shambhavi Kriya has significant physiological benefits. Inner Engineering practitioners demonstrated greater heart rate variability (HRV) (10), a potentially important indicator of resilience to stress and overall wellbeing (11). High frequency power, a measure of the parasympathetic, or restful, response was 4.8 times greater in meditators (10).

Meditators had a 4.8 times greater parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) response compared to controls. The PNS is a network of nerves that relaxes your system.

Brain wave patterns

Another study based on electroencephalography (EEG) showed increased delta and theta waves and decreased beta waves after Shambhavi Kriya along with increased coherence between the right and left brain hemispheres (12). Delta and theta waves are typically associated with deep sleep and light sleep, respectively. Therefore, Shambhavi Kriya has many of the benefits of sleep in a 21 minute practice.

Sleep Patterns

Not only does practicing Shambhavi Kriya recreate many of the brain wave patterns associated with sleep, but studies have shown that regular practice could improve sleep quality. Shambhavi Kriya practitioners reported improved sleep quality after six weeks of practice (9). Additionally, practitioners reported significantly reduced time to fall asleep and reach REM sleep along with having REM sleep that was double the duration of non-practitioners (13).

Menstrual Disorders

Finally, regular Shambhavi Kriya practice for six months has shown to improve symptoms associated with menstrual problems. These include significant reductions in severe menstrual cramps, premenstrual syndrome, severe menstrual flow, irregular menstrual cycles, impairment of work, and need for surgical interventions (14).
