About

This is an interactive guide to the benefits of mindfulness meditation, and the ways they build over time. Input a meditation schedule above, and see what shows up!

Every one of the benefits above comes from one or more published scientific studies on meditation.

Have a benefit you'd like listed?

We'd like to build the calculator out further! If there are scientifically demonstrated benefits of meditation you'd like us to list here, please contact us with a link to the study (and maybe a super-quick description of the benefit).

How to use

  1. Enter a meditation schedule: Minutes per day, days per week, etc. Benefits will come and go as you change these numbers around, based on the meditation schedule followed in each study.
    *Note: Most studies have their participants meditate every day—so "7" days a week. This doesn't mean that study participants don't miss a few days here and there.
  2. Click a benefit to see details. Each benefit has a summary, a link to read more on the Medivate blog, and links to the scientific study or studies cited.
