Course Description

Dr. Britton and Dr. Lindahl draw upon data from the VCE study to explore the various roles and various impacts that worldviews have before, during, and after meditation-related challenges.

  • Consider the role of worldviews as preparation for meditation-related challenges, as risk factors for the development of challenges, and as remedies for challenges when they arise.

  • Engage with both Buddhist and scientific worldviews and their impacts on meditation-related challenges.

  • Understand how intentionally navigating worldviews is an important aspect of managing meditation-related challenges.
