The research presented on this page is not exhaustive, we know there are 1000s more studies that have taken place, and more starting all the time.
There are now around 100 research studies into the impacts of mindfulness in the workplace. See the Evidence base pages for further information.
Over the last 40 years, mindfulness has been the subject of much research. Thousands of research papers have now been written on the applications of mindfulness, and its impacts on people's lives. This page provides links to a sample of this research. There is a huge volume of information on this page, so you may find it helpful to use the "Quick Links" in the box on the right of this page. Alternatively you can use the "Search box" to search for specific authors or papers. Pages are listed under each heading in alphabetical order by author. Some papers are listed several times if they relate to different topics or conditions.
Some of these papers are freely available on the internet, but others may need to be purchased. Due to this, we have not provided links to the papers on this page. If you need to access any of the papers listed on this page, please copy the title and authors from this page and paste it into a search engine which should easily locate it.
Mindfulness training involves practicing some well researched meditation exercises and using some simple stretching exercises, based on Yoga, to focus attention. As mindfulness uses some specific meditation exercises such as the body scan and focusing on the breath, we have included a number of research studies relating to meditation. Although many meditation practices may differ from those taught on a mindfulness course, the findings are likely to be equally applicable to mindfulness.
In the "Clinical applications of Mindfulness for specific conditions", you will find a wealth of research into the use of mindfulness to assist the treatment of a range of conditions ranging from Blood pressure to Visual sensitivity.
