Meditation Research

Welcome to meditation-research.org.uk – We are presenting current scientific research into meditation and mindfulness practice and the research activities of the Meditation and Mindfulness Research Group at Liverpool John Moores University.

 

Our meditation research blog tracks and comments on the latest developments in meditation research.

Furthermore, you can gain some insights into the research carried out by our group, covering areas such as mindfulness and healthy eating, mindfulness and cognitive ageing, the effects of meditation on attentional network dynamics, distinguishing between different meditation states and several other projects.

Soon we will add a meditation research bibliography, which is currently hosted (but not fully up-to-date) at www.pmalinowski.de.
