This workshop is founded on compelling research demonstrating the profound impact of meditation on mental well-being:
According to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), approximately 19% of U.S. adults experienced an anxiety disorder in the past year, underscoring the urgency for accessible and evidence-based interventions.
Studies published in reputable journals such as JAMA Internal Medicine and Psychological Bulletin have consistently shown that regular meditation practice can significantly reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression.
A meta-analysis conducted by Johns Hopkins University found that mindfulness meditation programs led to notable improvements in stress reduction and resilience, with participants experiencing a 38% reduction in overall stress levels.
