Purveyors of  eastern-style meditation are using the elevated levels of stress that the &#8220;pandemic&#8221; has caused to sell the idea that we need meditation practices to help alleviate that stress. The following letter to the editor gives one example (see links below for other examples).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dear Lighthouse Trails:<\/strong><br \/><br \/>I&#8217;m sending you this on the off chance you were not aware of Kaiser&#8217;s increasing mystical bent. A search for references to Kaiser or Kaiser Permanente on your site came up empty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This morning I found email from Kaiser Permanente in my regular inbox. This isn&#8217;t unusual because my mother-in-law has been enrolled with them for some time, and Kaiser sends her several emails after each of her cancer treatments. Since she &#8220;doesn&#8217;t do the Internet,&#8221; my wife has directed Kaiser&#8217;s email to our account. I usually just drop them in a folder without reading them since they contain no info that her doctor hasn&#8217;t already given her. But among the messages today is a link to Kaiser&#8217;s &#8220;Emotional Wellness Tools,&#8221; which includes various apps for<a href=\"https:\/\/healthy.kaiserpermanente.org\/health-wellness\/mental-health\/tools-resources\/digital\"> &#8220;mental health and emotional wellness.&#8221;<\/a> It seems Kaiser has taken note of\u00a0 &#8220;these stressful times&#8221; and has taken it upon themselves to be guardians of much more than physical health.<br \/><br \/>On one page of their website, we read:<br \/><br \/>&#8220;Everyone needs support for total health \u2014 mind, body, and spirit. These wellness apps can help you navigate life\u2019s challenges, and make small changes to improve your sleep, mood, relationships, and more. It\u2019s self-care made easy, designed to help you live well and thrive.&#8221;<br \/><br \/>There&#8217;s an app called &#8220;Calm&#8221; which features &#8220;More than 100 guided meditations&#8221; and other &#8220;mindfulness tools.&#8221; Another app is called &#8220;myStrength&#8221; (sic) which includes more &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lighthousetrailsresearch.com\/blog\/?p=28475\">Mindfulness<\/a> and meditation activities&#8221; as well as &#8220;Tailored programs for managing depression, stress, anxiety, and more.&#8221;<br \/><br \/>Got that? And MORE! <em>From a mainstream healthcare provider!!<\/em> I&#8217;m glad my mother-in-law <em>isn&#8217;t<\/em> computer literate, or she might be exposed to this poison.<br \/><br \/>We are living in a virtual ashram. The only antidote is the Gospel; God&#8217;s offer of eternal life as a <em>free gift<\/em>, received by simply believing in Christ as one&#8217;s Savior.<br \/><br \/><strong>Thank you for your
