Multicenter Study Comparative StudyMindfulness and psychologic well-being: are they related to type of meditation technique practiced?
This study examined whether practitioners of two meditation types differ on self-reported mindfulness skills and psychologic well-being. ⋯ The results suggest that self-reported mindfulness and psychologic well-being may be associated with meditation frequency rather than any potential differences when comparing MM and TM in this study. Note that substantial differences between MM and TM groups were present on basic demographics, which were controlled statistically.
