Complementary
health approaches, especially forms of meditation, are being studied for health
and wellness, including for:
-
Helping to prevent mental, emotional, and behavioral problems.
-
Promoting psychological and physical health, well-being, and
resilience.
One
of our top scientific priorities in our 2016 strategic plan is to focus on complementary
health practices for health and wellness. We hope that during the next 5 to 10
years, the research we support in this area will lead to more specific
complementary approaches for use in different settings, such as schools, medical
centers, and homeless shelters.
