Clinical Trial Summary

Many interventions in the field of meditation are becoming increasingly popular and have gained worldwide acceptance over the past years, both in terms of health, but also psychological aspects. On the other hand, controversial and sometimes hypercritical positions are on the rise, questioning the positive effects of meditation on health due to the limited availability of high-quality scientific data. With regard to a large number of meditation interventions, the systematic exploration of procedures that have not yet been scientifically evaluated - also in online settings - is a meaningful contribution to meditation research.
