Rapid Evidence Review Mindfulness 2024

In this review, we identified a sample of studies on mindfulness in older adults, while providing a more detailed analysis of the Mindful Ageing Project conducted in Europe between 2020 and 2023. Overall, there is clear evidence that mindfulness practice has both mediating and moderating effects that improve the experience of ageing. However, future research is needed to understand the longer-term efficacy of mindfulness practice in older adults, including early adoption and a life course approach to mindfulness.
