Meditation is a safe and simple way to balance a person's physical, emotional, and mental states. It is easy to learn and can be useful both for treating stress and in pain management. Meditation, in the broadest sense, is any activity that keeps the attention focused in the present. When the mind is calm and focused in the present, it is neither reacting to past events or preoccupied with future plans, two major sources of chronic stress. There are many forms of meditation, but they can be categorized into two main approaches, concentration meditation and mindfulness meditation.
Concentration meditation focuses the "lens of the mind" on one object, sound (mantra), the breath, an image, or thought, to still the mind and allow greater awareness or clarity to emerge. The breath is one of the most popular objects of focus in this type of meditation. As the person focuses on the ebb and flow of their breath, the mind is absorbed in the rhythm and becomes more placid, tranquil, and still. Mindfulness-based meditation entails bringing the mind to a still point, tuning out the world and bringing the mind to a halt as much as possible. Mindfulness meditation helps us practice non-judgment. The meditator sits quietly and simply witness whatever goes through the mind, not reacting or becoming involved with thoughts, memories, worries, or images. This helps the person gain a more calm, clear, and non-reactive state of mind.
Transcendental Meditation (TM), a popular form of concentration meditation, is the most well-documented regarding the physiological effects of meditation, with more than 500 clinical studies conducted to date. Research shows that, during TM practice, the body gains a deeper state of relaxation than during ordinary rest or sleep. Brain wave changes indicate a state of enhanced awareness and coherence and TM has been found to increase intelligence, creativity, and perceptual ability and reduce blood pressure and rates of illness by 50%. TM also causes decreased blood levels of cortisol, a hormone responsible for many of the deleterious physiological changes seen with stress. By reducing cortisol levels, the adrenal glands are allowed to heal, which positively influences allergic inflammation.

Yes, TM or other type of meditation DOES help a lot. Not only in controlling allergies, but it is now considered to be of prime importance (along with Yoga) in treating the various so-called 'lifestyle disorders'.
