by Mindfulness, a term that has gained significant popularity in recent times, is often touted as a panacea for mental health concerns. From various news outlets to popular magazines and social media platforms, the benefits of mindfulness are extensively advertised. Your loved ones might have even shared their personal experiences of how mindfulness practices have transformed their lives.
However, if you have given mindfulness a try but haven’t experienced the expected improvements in your mental health and well-being, recent research in developmental psychology might provide some insights.
Our latest study sheds light on the fact that the relationship between mindfulness and mental health is not a one-size-fits-all scenario. Instead, specific aspects of mindfulness might hold more significance for certain age groups, ultimately impacting mental health and well-being differently.
So, why isn’t mindfulness working for you? The answer might lie in the complex interplay between mindfulness practices and individual developmental stages.
