Future research can examine what can be done to make mindfulness beneficial to the few individuals who do not benefit from standard programs. Is it possible that they need to attain a particular ground level of mindfulness before engaging in formal practices? Could engaging in yoga or tai chi (or even exercise) before engaging in formal mindfulness classes help them? Can we do something about better training teachers? These are questions to ask in future research – just like we ask how to we can engage people to exercise (without getting injured as a result of falls, etc.)
