Which complementary therapy focuses on relieving stress through quieting the mind?

Biofeedback.
Imagery.
Yoga.
Meditation.

The correct answer is: Meditation.

Meditation is a complementary therapy that is specifically designed to relieve stress by promoting mental quietness and relaxation. It involves techniques such as focusing the mind, breathing exercises, and sometimes visualization, all aimed at achieving a state of deep tranquility and mindfulness. By encouraging individuals to concentrate on their breath or a specific thought, meditation helps reduce the racing thoughts that often contribute to stress, leading to improved mental clarity and emotional resilience. In contrast, the other approaches have different focal points: biofeedback uses technology to make individuals aware of physiological functions in order to exert control over them; imagery involves visualizing calming scenes or scenarios to induce relaxation; while yoga combines physical postures, breathing exercises, and meditation, making it broader than just a method for calming the mind. Meditation stands out for its singular focus on mental quietude and stress relief.
