DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "The U.S. Meditation Market" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Practicing meditation to reduce stress is becoming mainstream in America. Today, 9.3 million Americans meditate, fueling a $1+ billion industry comprised of meditation studios, books, DVDs, workshops, online courses, websites, apps and supplies. Like the yoga market, which has seen a major increase in the past decade, meditation is experiencing strong growth.
Many mindfulness courses include additional teachings on compassion. We are seeing many more local studios offering courses and drop-in meditation sessions.
Over the past 20 years, Mindfulness and mindfulness-based programs have become increasingly important to Westerners and in the Western medical and psychological community as a means of helping people, whether they be clinically sick or healthy. Jon Kabat-Zinn, who founded the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction program in 1979, has defined mindfulness as 'moment to moment non-judgmental awareness'.
In the past, the only options to learn meditation were to take a Transcendental Meditation course for $1,400 over four days, to go to Buddhist temples for two hours at a time or to do a six-week program at a hospital. None of these options were practical.
The TM movement operates a worldwide network of Transcendental Meditation teaching centers, schools, universities, health centers, herbal supplements, solar panel, and home financing companies, plus several TM-centered communities.
