The study was published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism on December 18. Results of the study showed that individuals who completed a mindfulness course not only had greater self-esteem, but also had more confidence around weight loss while developing a better relationship with their food.
The program that dieters being studied participated in was a four week mindfulness course. These people showed to have had “significantly greater weight loss at 6 months” after the course that those who did not take part in the mindfulness exercises.
