Mindfulness an attentive non-judgmental focus on present experiences is increasingly incorporated in psychotherapeutic treatments as a skill fostering emotion regulation. Neurobiological mechanisms of actively induced emotion regulation are associated with prefrontally mediated downregulation of, for instance, the amygdala. We were interested in neurobiological correlates of a short mindfulness instruction during emotional arousal. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging, we investigated effects of a short mindfulness intervention during the cued expectation and perception of negative and potentially negative pictures (50% probability) in 24 healthy individuals compared to 22 controls. The mindfulness intervention was associated with increased activations in prefrontal regions during the expectation of negative and potentially negative pictures compared to controls. During the perception of negative stimuli, reduced activation was identified in regions involved in emotion processing (amygdala, parahippocampal gyrus). Prefrontal and right insular activations when expecting negative pictures correlated negatively with trait mindfulness, suggesting that more mindful individuals required less regulatory resources to attenuate emotional arousal. Our findings suggest emotion regulatory effects of a short mindfulness intervention on a neurobiological level.

“…As the leadership skills and style of individual managers have a big impact on the culture of an organization, emotional leadership skills are important for the success of agile methods. A metaanalysis conducted by Giluk [39] on the relationship between mindfulness and the Big Five personality traits shows relationships with neuroticism, negative affect, and conscientiousness, but also with agreeableness.…”

Abstract. While the effects of mindfulness are increasingly explored across different fields, little is known about the application of these practices in agile project teams. In this paper we report on a rigorous controlled trial executed to understand the impact of the three minute breathing exercise on the perceived effectiveness of stand-up meetings. We compare (1) an active group using a three minute breathing exercise, to (2) a placebo, and (3) a control group in 3 organizations and 8 teams with over 152 measurements. Our findings indicate an immediate positive impact on perceived effectiveness, decision-making and improved listening in the active groups compared to the placebo and natural history groups. We provide a preliminary agenda for future research based on our findings and previous evidence from other fields.

On the other hand, openness to experience is positively correlated with both pro-environmental behavior (Markowitz, Goldberg, Ashton, & Lee, 2012) and mindfulness (Giluk, 2009, van den Hurk et al, 2011, thus the practice of mindfulness can help move the personality in a more environmental friendly direction.…”

After several decades of sustainability efforts humanity is still on track to worst-case climate scenario. Other planetary boundaries have also been transgressed. The symptoms point to a root cause termed by many as a crisis of perception and value system. Our consumption-oriented world view is unsustainable. What can catalyze a perceptual paradigm shift needed to avoid global socio-ecological collapse in the long-run? Besides its manifold beneficial effects tested clinically, mindfulness has been found to be positively correlated with sustainable behavior. The article gives a theoretical grounding of mindfulness highlighting some new aspects and argues that the tourism context serves as an exceptionally suitable medium for learning mindfulness techniques. Expanding on earlier openness to new experience and Google Trends research of the author it is demonstrated that tourists have a markedly raised level of openness to new experience and also that there is a strong demand side business case for developing more mindfulness-based tourism products both globally and specifically for Hungary. The study provides further evidence of the short fade-out period of positive vacation effects and shows what type of destinations and accommodations potential wellness and ecotourists consider best for learning mindfulness.
