Throughout researching
my topic for this week’s assignment, I was able to get various viewpoints of a
psychological perspective of mindfulness. Some new strategies the course text
provided, that I used, was not using too many keywords. Badke specifically says
that rarely will a researcher will ever need more than three keywords. Also when
using an AND search, which I did do so this week, may eliminate data from my
results (Badke, 2014). I found it difficult that we had to find a journal and
then go through the articles within it to find our narrowed down topic. It was
worth it though it was time consuming because only a small bit of information is
relevant to my narrowed down topic. I’m hoping to
find out if practicing mindfulness meditation will reduce high stress levels. I
also hope to learn specific mindful techniques that have been shown to reduce
stress and combine article findings to best enhance the benefits of
mindfulness.
Thanks for reading, until next week!
