Efficacy of a Self-Guided Transdiagnostic Intervention for Adults With Anxiety and Depression: Randomized Controlled Trial

Future research areas include expanding upon the current RCT to evaluate the effectiveness of the Headspace Anxiety and Depression Program in a real-world setting and examining the use of the program alongside Headspace’s meditation content library and human-delivered care (mental health coaching, therapy, and psychiatry).

Bedtime App–Guided Mindfulness Meditation in Patients With Insomnia: Mixed Methods Feasibility and Acceptability Pilot Study

Bedtime App–Guided Mindfulness Meditation in Patients With Insomnia: Mixed Methods Feasibility and Acceptability Pilot Study

Mindfulness meditation (MM) may be a promising nonpharmacological treatment for improving sleep quality by reducing bedtime stress and arousal [30], while barriers to adoption and scalability are also issues. Technology-based approaches facilitate remote delivery of mindfulness-based interventions to be more affordable, accessible, and scalable.

Experiences of a Neurofeedback-Based Mindfulness Meditation Intervention for Migraine: Qualitative Study

Experiences of a Neurofeedback-Based Mindfulness Meditation Intervention for Migraine: Qualitative Study

Of these, 33 completed a neurofeedback-based mindfulness meditation task, and 31 completed an attention control task. Exclusion criteria included having started a new preventive medication within the last 6 months [48], comorbidity of Raynaud syndrome or diabetes, and previous engagement in meditation practices (ie, regular meditation sessions exceeding 60 minutes per month). Those in the meditation condition underwent a 56-day intervention that involved using the Muse system once a day.

Examining the Dose-Response Effects of Mindfulness Meditation Interventions on Well-Being: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Examining the Dose-Response Effects of Mindfulness Meditation Interventions on Well-Being: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Participants will be randomized into 1 of the 4 groups: 10 minutes of meditation per day, 20 minutes of meditation per day, 30 minutes of meditation per day, or a minimal dose of 4 minutes of meditation per day (Figure 1). All participants will be encouraged not to complete any further mindfulness training or practice during the intervention period apart from informal practice during daily life.

Evaluating Theory-Driven Messaging to Overcome the Barriers to Meditation: Large-Scale Digital Field Experiment

Evaluating Theory-Driven Messaging to Overcome the Barriers to Meditation: Large-Scale Digital Field Experiment

Despite the clear benefits, the adoption and maintenance of meditation practices have low engagement. Recent research revealed that while 92% of Americans are aware of meditation, less than half (49.8%) have ever tried it, and only 15.1% have engaged in the practice within a 7-day time period [12]. Meditation content is also widely available on digital platforms, such as Calm, Headspace, You Tube, and Spotify. Among meditators, 58.8% have used meditation apps at least once [13].

Feasibility Testing a Meditation App for Professionals Working With Youth in the Legal System: Protocol for a Hybrid Type 2 Effectiveness-Implementation Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Feasibility Testing a Meditation App for Professionals Working With Youth in the Legal System: Protocol for a Hybrid Type 2 Effectiveness-Implementation Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Emotion dysregulation (eg, difficulty up-regulating positive emotions or down-regulating negative emotions) appears to be a common mechanism underlying depression, anxiety, and burnout, and it can be improved through mindfulness meditation [6-9]. Moreover, many professionals who work with young people in the legal system express interest in meditation practice [10]. Yet research in this area is sparse, and the scalability of existing efforts has been limited.

Consumer-Grade Neurofeedback With Mindfulness Meditation: Meta-Analysis

Consumer-Grade Neurofeedback With Mindfulness Meditation: Meta-Analysis

However, the evidence base for cg NF is scarce [52], especially in the realm of meditation, where the enthusiasm for these devices may outpace the evidence [53]. For example, the Muse headband, which markets itself as “your personal meditation coach,” offers to elevate mental performance, improve sleep, improve focus, and more (Intera Xon). As yet, there is no systematic evidence that devices like Muse can effectively promote these psychological and physiological benefits.

Proximal Effects of a Just-in-Time Adaptive Intervention for Smoking Cessation With Wearable Sensors: Microrandomized Trial

Another on-demand button addressed 13 frequently asked questions about mindfulness (eg, Is mindfulness the same thing as meditation?). Brief individually-delivered counseling was consistent with the Treating Tobacco Dependence Guidelines (eg, removing smoking paraphernalia, and social support) [79] and lasted about 20-30 minutes at each visit. Visit 1 provided participants with the National Cancer Institute’s Clearing the Air booklet and a single-page handout on mindfulness.
