I got it under control again

I've heard Dr Deepak Chopra say a couple times how the 3 most important things to do for good health is: meditate, meditate, meditate.
Some people will come up with different reasons why I was able to get myself under control again so fast. My running to the bathroom 8 -12 times a day has dropped right back down to 2-3 times for these last 3 days. I know the real reason why things got better so fast, it has to be this reason. For the last 5 years I have been keeping records of when my Crohn’s disease acts up and the one action that seems to be the thing to pull me back again is no doubt meditation for 30 minutes twice a day. When things just started up again I could not sit for 30 minutes in row, I lost some kind of a connection. 2 days ago I made myself sit 4 times for 30 minutes and a total of 2 hours of meditating. Yesterday I meditated for 30 minutes 3 times and have meditated once so far today. Somehow when I slow down my mind I also weaken any problems.
