Effect of a Brief Daily Digital Meditation on Well-Being in US Young Adults (BEGIN II) (BEGIN II)

21. maj 2026 opdateret af: Balachundhar Subramaniam, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center

This study is testing whether a short, daily, app-based meditation can help young adults feel better in their everyday lives.

We will invite about 354 adults between 18 and 40 years old who live in the United States to join.

Everyone who joins will be randomly placed into one of three groups for 4 weeks: Intervention group will do a 7-minute Miracle of Mind meditation each day using a phone app. Active comparator group will listen to a neutral 7-minute audio lesson each day. Control group will continue their usual daily routine without adding anything new.

All participants will answer short online surveys at the start and several times during the 4 weeks, sharing how they feel about their mood, stress, anxiety, overall well-being, and mindfulness.

Participants who already wear a smartwatch (like a Fitbit or Apple Watch) can choose to share their heart rate-related data so we can see whether the meditation might also affect physical signs of stress.

Investigators will compare how participants in the three groups change over time to see if the daily 7-minute meditation helps young adults feel better, less stressed, and more emotionally resilient.

Miracle of Mind is a 7-minute meditation that incorporates breath and awareness to enhance mental health and clarity. The practice involves voice-guided seated meditation with simple breathing techniques. This is a simple, safe intervention that does not require any previous meditation experience.
Aktiv komparator: Active control arm: Daily neutral audio learning
Participants in this group will use the same study app to listen to a neutral 7-minute audio lesson once a day for 4 weeks. The lessons cover general educational topics and are designed not to be emotional, inspirational, or related to psychology.
Active control participants are asked to listen to an approximately 7-minute neutral audio learning task daily in the 3Cs app for the duration of the study. A total of 28 audio learning tasks were sourced from the SDG Academy and Harvard University YouTube and SoundCloud content were screened prior to inclusion.
Ingen indgriben: Passive control arm: Usual routine
Participants in this group will not receive any new activity through the app and will continue their usual daily routine for 4 weeks. They will complete the same study surveys as the other groups but will not be asked to meditate or listen to audio lessons.
