It is also believed that the technique increases serotonin, which is a substance that the brain emits to create calmness. Serotonin is furthermore linked to other hormones creating happiness and reducing cortisol (the body's stress hormone). However, due to how difficult it is to measure, we cannot say with 100% certainty that it happens.
