Mindfulness Meditation and Musical Creativity
This qualitative study investigates the impact of mindfulness meditation (MM) on musical creativity. Researchers interviewed three composers before and after an eight-session MM course, analyzing the resulting data for recurring themes. The study found that MM enhanced perceived musical creativity by improving focus, awareness, and reducing the negative impact of striving and self-criticism. The researchers emphasized the importance of subjective experience and the harmonious aspects of the creative process. The study's findings, while not generalizable beyond the participants, suggest a promising area for future research in transpersonal psychology and music therapy.
