Does picking your own meditation make it work better?

NCT ID NCT06402461

Summary

This study aimed to understand if letting people choose their preferred type of brief mindfulness practice leads to better results than being randomly assigned one. Researchers compared three groups of healthy UK adults: one that chose their practice, one that was randomly assigned a practice, and a control group that listened to an audiobook. They measured changes in mindfulness, mood, and participants' intention to keep practicing.
