The definition of mindfulness is not supported by the sources

I have changed the first sentence because the references do not support "conceptual reification." There are many forms of mindfulness and we don't get to pick the one we like best. It remains a capacious and muddy term with competing definitions. The lead should reflect that.DolyaIskrina (talk) 18:26, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Adverese effects

The last week or so I have added new material to this article. This is so because this article lacks a section on adverse effects. This is unacceptable. We nowdays have peer-rewied studies that convincingly show that meditation/mindfullness is not an innocuous practice. This information must be offered to the readers of wikipedia up-front (as is done in other articles, e.g., on SSRI-drugs or psychotherapy), and not embedded or hidden under other sections, or underepresented, so that they can make informed choices as to whether they want to use these techniques or not. The section on "risks" is so small as to be patronizing and threfore I deleted it and fused its content with the new section/heading. Didaktron (talk) 20:07, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
