I'm a big advocate for meditation but the study is skewed by survivor bias. Almost half of participants dropped off responding after 6 months.
- crispinb 7y agoWell it's only a small pilot. I find the 'meditation' description a little odd applied to Byron Katie's work. It's really more like a highly commercialised self-enquiry method than meditation per se. Basically neo-advaita plus wads of cash with a little cultish bullying mixed in.
