Meditation in Treating PTSD, Depression, TBI, and iPhone App

A couple of interesting research studies from Harvard look at factor affecting happiness and the effect of meditation. Since these have an applicability to PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, and TBI I am linking to the studies and the Track Your Happiness iPhone app. If you or someone you know suffers from Depression, PTSD, TBI, or Anxiety I hope that you will urge them to read these studies and consider using meditation as part of their treatment protocol.
