Elevated psychological\nstress could compromise the human capacity to fight against COVID-19.\nTherefore, effective interventions including timely mental health care to\nimprove psychological wellbeing are urgently needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Accumulated studies demonstrated that\nmeditation, could not only effectively reduce negative emotions (such as\nstress, anxiety, depression) by regulating the body&#8217;s neuro-endocrine-immune\nnetwork and through other mechanisms, but also serve as an adjunct approach to\nrehabilitation and treatment for a wide range of diseases and disorders, both\nphysical and mental.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Modern Meditation\nis a practice developed for relaxation and stress reduction. Rooted in the\ntheories of traditional Chinese medicine, this meditation centers on holism of\nhuman beings and the universe, the oneness of body and mind, meridians and\ncollaterals, five elements including Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water, and\ndoctrine of viscera state including heart, liver, kidney, spleen, and\nespecially around this time, the lungs. It\nalso integrates Western psychology, Western medicine such as\nneuroscience, endocrinology and immunology.&nbsp;\nMeanwhile, it combines the essence of music therapy, visualization and\nmindfulness meditation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to help people around the\nworld recover more rapidly from the the international pandemic, our team\ncreated the English album \u201cModern Meditation To Cope With the COVID-19 Pandemic&#8221;.\nThis album is suitable for people who are living under high stress, especially\nduring the COVID-19 pandemic, including patients, healthcare workers,\ngovernment employees, educators, business owners, students and those in\nquarantine. Through Modern Meditation, you can relax your body and mind, reduce\nstress and fatigue, balance meridians and collaterals, and strengthen major\norgans effectively. We have also found that it can be beneficial for those with\npsychological and physical symptoms such as anxiety, irritability, headache and\ninsomnia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The album \u201cModern Meditation To Cope\nWith the COVID-19 Pandemic\u201d was developed by a multidisciplinary team.\nJianguang Xu, the President of Shanghai Medical Association, the President of\nShanghai Medical Doctor Association and the President of Shanghai University of\nTraditional Chinese Medicine, served as the Chief Advisor. Mo Xue, China&#8217;s National First-class Writer, Vice\nPresident of Gansu Writers\u2019 Association, served as humanistic consultant. Lijun\nJia, the winner of the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars\nand Distinguished Professor of Yangtze River scholars, served as the producer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For coping with COVID-19, this\nmultidisciplinary team previously developed three meditation albums in Chinese\nfor patients, healthcare workers and the public, respectively. After being well\nreceived for nearly 2 months, these three albums have gotten more than 400,000\nhits on WeChat, a popular Chinese social medium. Importantly, these previous\nmeditation albums have been highly regarded by patients, healthcare workers and\nthe public. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Production Team:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chief\nAdvisor:<\/strong> Jianguang Xu, Shanghai University of\nTraditional Chinese Medicine<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Humanities consultant<\/strong>:\nMo Xue, Gansu Provincial Writers&#8217; Association<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Producer:<\/strong>\nLijun Jia, Longhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional\nChinese Medicine<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Content\nexperts: <\/strong>Lijun Jia, Bangjiang Fang, Xiaobing Wang,\nXi Yang, Xihui Chen, (Longhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of\nTraditional Chinese Medicine); Yanmei Zhang,(Huadong Hospital Affiliated to\nFudan University); Huiqi Tong, (Stanford University)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Music\ndesign and creation: <\/strong>Hao Liu, Shanghai\nConservatory of Music<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Music\nrecording:<\/strong> Huixin Xue, Shanghai Conservatory of\nMusic<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Erhu\nplayer: <\/strong>Xiaohui Ma, Shanghai Chinese Orchestra<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Guqin\nplayer:<\/strong> Xiaozi Lu, Shanghai Conservatory of Music<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Music\ndirectors:<\/strong>Lei Jiang (East China Normal University);\nXiaohui Ma (Shanghai Chinese Orchestra); Hao Liu (Shanghai Conservatory of\nMusic)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dubber:\n<\/strong>Jiankun Bao, Kunming Oriental-Literature\nCollege For the Elderly<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Acknowledgment:\n<\/strong>Organization Department of Shanghai Xuhui\nDistrict Committee <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong>\nThe copyright of this album belongs to Longhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai\nUniversity of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
