Abstract

Mindfulness meditation has been purported as a beneficial practice for wellbeing. It would
be expected that the neurophysiology of mindfulness would reflect this impact on wellbeing.
However, investigations of the effect of mindfulness have generated mixed reports of
increases, decreases, as well as no differences in EEG oscillations in comparison with a
resting state and a variety of tasks. We have performed systematic review of EEG studies of
mindfulness meditation in order to determine any common effects and to identify factors
which may impact on the effects. Databases were reviewed from 1966 to August 2015.
Eligibility criteria included empirical quantitative analyses of mindfulness meditation practice
and EEG measurements acquired in relation to practice. A total of 56 papers met the
eligibility criteria and were included in the systematic review, consisting of a total 1,715
subjects: 1,358 healthy individuals and 357 individuals with psychiatric diagnoses. Studies
were principally examined for power outcomes in each bandwidth, in particular the power
differentials between mindfulness and the control state, as well as outcomes relating to
hemispheric asymmetry and event-related potentials. The systematic review revealed that
mindfulness was most commonly associated with enhanced alpha and theta power as
compared to an eyes closed resting state, although such outcomes were not uniformly
reported. No consistent patterns were observed with respect to beta, delta and gamma
bandwidths. In summary, mindfulness is associated with increased alpha and theta power in
both healthy individuals and in patient groups. This co-presence of elevated alpha and theta
may signify a state of relaxed alertness which is conducive to mental health.
