Provisional grade. This entry carries a baseline score generated from the standard framework but not yet confirmed by rater review. The dimensions, the citations behind them, and the grade may all move.

What the evidence shows

Trials report modest changes in blood pressure and stress markers over weeks to months. Blinding is impossible and active-control design is inconsistent, so it is frequently unclear whether an effect comes from the specific practice or from structured rest and attention generally. Health outcome data is absent.
