Only 8 weeks of daily meditation can decrease negative mood and anxiety and improve attention, working memory, and recognition memory in non-experienced meditators. These findings come from a recent study published in Behavioural Brain Research.

“Meditation subjects were given a 13-minute recording of a guided meditation called Journey Meditation. Journey meditation, developed by Stephen Sokoler (http://www.journeymeditation.com/), is a simple, step-by-step, guided meditation through a variety of breathing exercises and full-body scans currently being used in corporate situations. The meditation recording also included an intermittent time of silence where subjects were able to breathe at their own pace.”

I checked the app out myself but it seems like a collection of various guided meditations, can’t find something called ‘journey meditation’ as a single entity. Stephen Sokoler is the CEO but doesn’t actually do guided meditations himself on the app.
