- 소개/요약Inner-brain functional synchronicity was investigated during TM (yoga meditation) and Qigong exercise, along with a control group that listened to a piece of relaxing music. Group 1 consisted of TM practitioners (N=8, 30.38 + 4.37 y), Group 2 consisted of Qigong practitioners (N=8, 43.00 +13.09 y), and Group 3 consisted of healthy university students with no experience in TM or Qigong (N=8, 25.13 + 3.18 y). Electroencephalograms (EEGs) were measured throughout the three stages of the experiment that consisted of: 1) pre-treatment-rest; 2) treatment; and 3) post-treatment-rest. The hemispheric (C3-C4) as well as frontal-parietal (Fz-Pz) coherences were computed and contrasted. Results demonstrated that TM produced increased coherences in both C3-C4 and FzPz during and after meditation (that is, the treatment) in the TM group, while these coherences increased only after the treatment (Qigong) in the Qigong group. There was no significant change in the control group. These results suggested that TM enhanced the functional correlation in the brain, while Qigong enhanced it only during the rest period after the Qigong, and thereby implying a differential physiological mechanism. Different uses of yoga meditation and Qigong exercise as forms of alternative medicine were suggested as a potential clinical application.
