Meditation & Mild Cognitive Impairment

Meditation can boost brain health in those with mild cognitive impairment

According to a study, mindfulness meditation can help boost cognitive reserve in adults with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). While no treatments exist to help prevent the early onset of Alzheimer’s disease, the research found that those adults with MCI who practised mindfulness meditation showed signs of improved cognition. The target group of adults with MCI between the ages of 55 and 90 was split into two, with one portion attending an 8-week course in mindfulness meditation and yoga, while the other was put on the waiting list for the course. Those who attended the course showed results of reduced stress and improved cognition.

Owing to the findings, the researcher behind the study also suggests the necessity for pessimism treatment as part of the recuperation process of people who’ve recently suffered a heart attack.
