Just as different populations (meditators vs non-meditators; clinical vs community populations) use facets of mindfulness in different ways (Woodhead et al 2013), age and gender also influence how individuals respond to meditation and mindfulness. Studies investigating effects of mindfulness often use the Five Factor Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ), which looks at how subjects score on five different facets of mindfulness. Five Facets of Mindfulness Used in This Study Past studies show that men tend to score higher on the “non-reactivity” facet of the FFMQ, while women score higher on the “observing” facet....
It’s an important question but one that science has yet to fully answer. We’ve learned a lot about the demographics of happiness and how it’s affected by conditions like income, education, gender, and marriage. But the scientific results are surprising: Factors like these don’t seem to have particularly strong effects. Yes, people are generally happier if they make more money rather than less, or are married instead of single, but the differences are quite modest....

Mind Talk and Brain Talk To those of us without a degree in neurobiology, it seems completely natural to refer to the mind. We talk about feeling this way and thinking of that, of remembering one thing and dreaming of another. Those verbs are examples of mind talk. Using mind talk, we would say, “I recognized my first-grade teacher in the crowd because she was wearing the necklace with the beetle scarab, which was so unusual I still remembered it after all these years....

Over the last several decades, through my work with tens of thousands of clients and meditation students, I’ve come to see the pain of perceived deficiency as epidemic. It’s like we’re in a trance that causes us to see ourselves as unworthy. Yet, I have seen in my own life, and with countless others, that we can awaken from this trance through practicing mindfulness and self-compassion. We can come to trust the goodness and purity of our hearts....
Mindfulness, however, wasn’t always on her leadership-training radar. While today she’s the Executive Director of the Institute for Mindful Leadership and author of the book Finding the Space to Lead, in the early 2000s Marturano was a “twenty-first-century juggler” living the sandwich-generation nightmare: school-aged children, aging parents, a demanding job at a Fortune 200 company, and a high-stakes assignment overseeing an acquisition. During the eighteen months that assignment took, her parents died—first her mother, who’d been ill, then six months later, her father, who had not....
Over the last few months, I have actually suffered several strokes or TIAs. Some more impactful than others. Each had slightly different symptoms and effects, some of which remained, while others passed after a short period of time. All of this has been extraordinary teaching in uncertainty and humility. I feel a deep gratitude for years of awareness practice. The accumulated effect of decades of studying the mind, heart, and body has proved to be a reliable companion as I attempt to navigate the new set of conditions I have been given....
The confident psychologists could well be right about their healing abilities. But Scott Lilienfeld wonders. A research psychologist at Emory University, Lilienfeld has written papers on the resistance of clinical psychologists—practitioners who treat depression, social phobia, marital troubles, personality disorders, and the whole woeful litany of human mental miseries—to evidence-based practice, in which the choice of treatment is guided by rigorous, large-scale studies. Whenever Lilienfeld advocates this, the blowback is immediate: We know what works; we see it every time a satisfied client leaves therapy cured of what troubled her....
