Is 10 minutes of meditation enough?

Ten minutes is a reasonable and widely used session length, but it is a product convention rather than a scientifically established dose. It became a consumer norm largely through early meditation apps and a 2012 TED talk titled All it takes is 10 mindful minutes. No published experiment, patent or founder statement was found showing that 10 minutes was selected because it maximised clinical effect. In the trials that have compared doses directly, no study found the 20 or 30-minute conditions to be reliably better than 10.
