 The [[Pineal Gland]], also known as the pineal body, is a small endocrine gland in the brain. It produces melatonin, a serotonin derived hormone, that affects the modulation of sleep patterns in both seasonal and circadian rhythms. Its shape resembles a tiny pine cone (hence its name), and it is located in the epithalamus, near the centre of the brain.<ref>wikipedia</ref>
-The main function of the [[Pineal Gland]] is its role in mediating circadian rhythms of the body through the production of the hormone melatonin, from its precursor amino acid tryptophan. The [[Pineal Gland]] is most active in early morning hours, hence meditation is often undergone at this time. The pineal gland is the only singular organ in the brain and is located near the upper end of the spinal cord, which ends or terminates in the oldest anatomical region in the brain.
