New Drugs and Therapies Study Findings Have Been Reported by Researchers at Brigham Young University (A Couples' Relationship Education Intervention Examining Sexual Mindfulness and Trait Mindfulness).

Researchers at Brigham Young University have conducted a study on the benefits of mindfulness training in the context of romantic relationships. The study found that mindfulness practiced by committed partners can lead to greater empathy, perspective taking, and overall marital satisfaction. The researchers compared heterosexual couples in a mindfulness-only intervention group to couples in a sexual-mindfulness intervention group and found that both groups showed positive results. The sexual-mindfulness group showed higher sexual awareness than the mindfulness-only group. The study suggests that incorporating sexual mindfulness into relationship education programs may be beneficial. [Extracted from the article]
