A short, app-based mindfulness meditation program improved sleep quality and quantity immediately after a 10-day intervention, but benefits faded by three months. In a randomized trial with 606 full-time working adults, the program also reduced depression but did not affect anxiety. The findings suggest that brief, low-cost mindfulness tools can offer short-term sleep benefits, though their durability is limited.
