Auditory Short latency, middle latency, and long latency
Qigong meditation which involves the initial “concentrating,” a subsequent “circulating,” and finally the “dispersion” of Qi
1 to 20 years
There was a significant increase in amplitude in wave I-V of BAER, Na and Pa wave of MLR decreased, and P2 wave of LLAER also decreased during meditation
“OM” meditation in which the participants meditated with effortless absorption in the single-thought state of the object of meditation, that is, “OM.”
10 years
Experienced meditators had significant increase in peak amplitude of Na wave during meditation and significant reduction in Na wave peak amplitude during control session
Two-group study (experienced meditators and nonexperienced)
Cyclic meditation in which a series of asanas (postures interspersed with relaxation techniques) are practiced with awareness.
6–48 months
After cyclic meditation there was a significant increase in the peak latency of the Pa wave and of the Nb wave; peak amplitude of the Nb wave also increased
“OM” meditation participants were instructed to keep their eyes closed and dwell on thoughts of OM, without any effort, particularly on the subtle (rather than physical) attributes and connotations of the syllable.
6–60 months
Significant increase in the peak latencies of Na and Pa waves during meditation and the peak amplitude of Pa wave was significantly decreased during meditation
“OM” meditation in which participants were instructed to keep their eyes closed and dwell on thoughts of OM, without any effort, particularly on the subtle (rather than physical) attributes and connotations of the syllable.
6–60 months
Decrease in the peak latency of the P2 wave during and after meditation
