Ancient Meditation Backed by Science | On Stress, Faith & Mental Health Can ancient meditation practices actually reduce anxiety, insomnia, and depression — and are they backed by science? In this episode of The Beyond Impact Podcast, Colin Egglesfield sits down with Dr. Ishan Shivanand, globally recognized mental health researcher, professor, bestselling author, and founder of Yoga of Immortals. Raised in an Indian ashram as the son of a head monk, Dr. Ishan blends thousands of years of yogic wisdom with modern clinical research. During the COVID era, his team expanded a small clinical study into a 10,000-participant trial — showing measurable reductions in anxiety, depression, and insomnia within just 4–8 weeks of consistent practice. This conversation explores: • The science behind breathwork, mantra, and visualization • Why stress doesn’t disappear — but your relationship to it can change • How meditation can be practiced without conflicting with religion • The difference between mindfulness and traditional yogic meditation • Why faith and mental health may be more connected than we think • The future of integrative healthcare Dr. Ishan also guides Colin through a live meditation practice you can follow along with. Whether you’re dealing with stress, burnout, trauma, or simply seeking greater clarity and peace, this episode offers practical tools and a fresh perspective on the intersection of spirituality, science, and resilience.
