But while the practice is not new, science is just starting to fully understand its benefits. Recent studies show meditation and mindfulness can help you stress less, love more and even sleep better. People who practice mindfulness meditation regularly report feeling less stressed and more emotionally balanced (Tang, R. et al. , 2014). Mindful attunement to one's partner may promote greater relationship satisfaction, in particular sexual satisfaction. (Khaddouma, A. et al, 2015). Mindfulness meditation has been shown to improve sleep quality in older adults (Black, D. et al. , 2015).
