The Center is working with the US Army to explore the uses of meditation to restore resiliency in chaplains and medical caregivers. A prospectus, The Use of Meditation and Mindfulness Practices to Support Military Care Providers, is now available.

The Contemplative Net Project was a qualitative research project conducted by the Center for Contemplative Mind in Society from 2001 through 2004. The Project researched the ways in which contemplative practices are being employed in mainstream American society.

Now that the study is completed, our findings are available. We hope that our efforts will increase understanding and support for this emerging movement.
