  • Toward the Integration of Meditation Into Higher Education: a Review of Research
    Toward the Integration of Meditation into Higher Education: A Review of Research Prepared for the Center for Contemplative Mind in Society by Shauna L. Shapiro Santa Clara University Kirk Warren Brown Virginia Commonwealth University John A. Astin California Pacific Medical Center Supplemental research and editing: Maia Duerr, Five Directions Consulting October 2008 2 Abstract There is growing interest in the integration of meditation into higher education (Bush, 2006). This paper reviews empirical evidence related to the use of meditation to facilitate the achievement of traditional educational goals, to help support student mental health under academic stress, and to enhance education of the “whole person.” Drawing on four decades of research conducted with two primary forms of meditation, we demonstrate how these practices may help to foster important cognitive skills of attention and information processing, as well as help to build stress resilience and adaptive interpersonal capacities. This paper also offers directions for future research, highlighting the importance of theory-based investigations, increased methodological rigor, expansion of the scope of education-related outcomes studied, and the study of best practices for teaching meditation in educational settings. 3 Meditation and Higher Education: Key Research Findings Cognitive and Academic Performance • Mindfulness meditation may improve ability to maintain preparedness and orient attention. • Mindfulness meditation may improve ability to process information quickly and accurately. • Concentration-based meditation, practiced over a long-term, may have a positive impact on academic achievement. Mental Health and Psychological Well-Being • Mindfulness meditation may decrease stress, anxiety, and depression. • Mindfulness meditation supports better regulation of emotional reactions and the cultivation of positive psychological states.

  • Eastern and Western Contributions to «Contemplative Science»
    Enrahonar. Quaderns de Filosofia 47, 2011 93-104 Eastern and Western contributions to «contemplative science» Stephen J. Laumakis University of St. Thomas Saint Paul, MN 55105 [email protected] Abstract Even the most casual survey of the various professional journal articles and books dedicated to the study of the nature, value, use, and benefits of meditation, in general, as well as the emerging field of the scientific study of contemplation reveals that this is one of the most active and promising arenas in the comparative study of Eastern and Western thought and practice. Yet, even though there are many facets of meditative practices that are common to both traditions, the contemporary Western tradition may be distinguished, in one way, from its Eastern counterpart by its current and ongoing collaboration with both the hard sciences and the social sciences. Recently, however, this openness to cooperation and work- ing with the sciences has begun to spread to Eastern practitioners. In fact, Buddhist scholar B. Alan Wallace observes in Contemplative Science, «[...] there are [...] historical roots to the principles of contemplation and of science that suggest a possible reconciliation and even integration between the two approaches». Assuming, for the sake of argument, that Wallace is correct about this, the purpose of this paper is to offer an analysis and critique of the speculative/theoretical and practical/ scientific possibilities of «contemplative science» and the unique contributions of both the Eastern and Western traditions

  • Mindfulness and Mental Health: Therapy, Theory and Science
    Mindfulness and Mental Health Being mindful can help people feel calmer and more fully alive. Mindfulness and Mental Health examines other effects it can also have and presents a signi®cant new model of how mindful awareness may in¯uence different forms of mental suffering. The book assesses current understandings of what mindfulness is, what it leads to, and how and when it can help. It looks at the roots and signi®cance of mindfulness in Buddhist psychology and at the strengths and limitations of recent scienti®c investigations. A survey of relationships between mindfulness practice and established forms of psychotherapy introduces evaluations of recent clinical work where mindfulness has been used with a wide range of psychological dis- orders. As well as considering current `mindfulness-based' therapies, future directions for the development of new techniques, their selec- tion, how they are used and implications for professional training are discussed. Finally, mindfulness's future contribution to positive mental health is examined with reference to vulnerability to illness, adaptation and the ¯ourishing of hidden capabilities. As a cogent summary of the ®eld that addresses many key questions, Mindfulness and Mental Health is likely to help therapists from all professional backgrounds in getting to grips with developments that are becoming too signi®cant to ignore. Chris Mace is Consultant Psychotherapist to Coventry and Warwick- shire NHS Partnership Trust and honorary Senior Lecturer in Psycho- therapy at the University of Warwick. He is currently chair of the Royal College of Psychiatrists' Psychotherapy Faculty. His previous publications include the Routledge handbooks The Art and Science of Assessment in Psychotherapy; Heart and Soul: The therapeutic face of philosophy; and Evidence in the Psychological Therapies.
