The objective of this investigation was to examine the effect of a standardized MBI on the gray matter tissue of older adults with sleep disturbances.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This exploratory single-group pilot longitudinal study examined local gray matter changes over a six-week MBI period. Participants included six older adult community volunteers (M=66.5 years of age, SD=5.5, range=58-75; 66% female) with sleep disturbances recruited through advertisement in local newspapers/flyers posted at a university medical center and affiliated clinics in Los Angeles, CA.
