Summary

This study explores whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique can help people quickly achieve a deep meditative state, normally only reached after years of training. About 22 healthy adults who already meditate will wear an EEG cap and receive brain stimulation while performing a guided meditation task. Researchers will measure changes in brain activity and self-reported feelings of detachment from thoughts, aiming to see if this approach can boost openness and wellbeing.
