Not All Who Wander Are Lost: Meditation Beginners, Trait Nonreactivity, and Positive Mind-Wandering

Poster Session XI

Keyword: Mindfulness and Meditation

Abstract: Trait mindfulness (TM) has been linked to differences in first-time meditators. This study assessed the influence of TM on mind-wandering (MW) and EEG Microstate C metrics (N = 30). High TM was linked to a greater proportion of positive content during MW, but was not associated with Microstate C.
