Compassion and care for others can improve vagus nerve function.
同情关心别人能改善迷走神经功能。
Positive psychologist Barbara Frederickson has conducted research on the effects of lovingkindness meditation (LKM), a traditional Buddhist practice that involves meditating on love and extending compassion to oneself and a progressively large group of others. Frederickson found just six weeks of LKM training to have a positive impact on the vagus nerve, which extends from the brain stem to the heart, helping to regulate emotions as well as bodily systems including the cardiovascular and digestive systems.
积极心理学家巴巴拉•弗雷德里克森研究了仁爱冥想(LKM)的效果,这是一种传统的佛教练习,是对爱的冥想,把同情延伸到自己身上,再逐渐扩展到更多其他人身上。弗雷德里克森发现仅6周的仁爱冥想训练就对迷走神经有积极影响,能从脑干传到心脏,有助于调节情绪和包括心血管和消化系统在内的身体系统。

感恩也有利于心脏健康和免疫系统功能。
Like optimism, an "attitude of gratitude" -- an appreciation and feeling of thankfulness for the blessings one has in life -- carries significant mental and physical health benefits. Gratefulness, like optimism, has been linked with improved immune health, and has also been shown to improve sleep quality. Gratitude may also improve health and well-being in a variety of ways insofar as it lowers stress levels -- stress being one of the main contributing factors to many chronic diseases.
