Writing a blog about the Vipassana retreat and came across this gem From the discussion: "Our findings, with naïve participants learning mindfulness techniques by means of a brief training format, are consistent with those that have been reported for adept meditators. Four days (20 min/day) of MM training was effective in significantly increasing mindfulness scores in comparison to an active control group. Our brief MM training protocol promoted significant effects on several cognitive tasks that require sustained attention and executive processing efficiency (Symbol Digit Modalities Test, verbal fluency, and the hit runs on n-back task)."
