Neurohemodynamic correlates of ′OM′ chanting: A pilot functional magnetic resonance imaging study

Abstract

The neurohemodynamic correlates of 'OM' chanting indicate limbic deactivation. As similar observations have been recorded with vagus nerve stimulation treatment used in depression and epilepsy, the study findings argue for a potential role of this 'OM' chanting in clinical practice.
