Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of meditation therapy on stress relief and quality of life. The experimental group included 85 Sojucheon meditation members in Gwangju and Jeonnam, and the control group was a survey of 48 members including general office workers and beauty school students. One-way ANOVA was performed for the statistics of differences in study variables between the two groups. The results of the analysis showed a significant difference in stress, and the F test also showed a significant difference in quality of life. Therefore, most of the meditation practitioners have been found that meditation therapy has a positive effect on stress relief and quality of life. These results suggest that Sojucheon meditation therapy is effective in relieving stress and quality of life, and it can be said that it is sufficient to provide a reference of meditation therapy for psychological stability.

본 연구는 명상요법이 스트레스 해소와 삶의 질에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 실시하였다. 실험군은 광주·전남에 있는 소주천 명상 회원 85명을 대상으로 하였으며, 대조군은 일반회사원, 미용학원 학생 등 48명을 대상으로 설문조사로 하였다. 두 집단 간 연구변인의 차이의 통계는 일원분산분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과 스트레스의 경우 유의한 차이를 보였으며, 삶의 질 향상 역시 F검정결과 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 따라서 명상수련자의 경우 대부분이 명상요법이 스트레스 해소 및 삶의 질 향상에 긍정적으로 작용한다고 조사되었다. 이와 같은 연구 결과로 볼 때 소주천 명상요법은 스트레스 해소 및 삶의 질에 효과적임을 알 수 있었으며, 심리적 안정에 명상요법의 참고 자료를 제공함에 충분하다고 할 수 있을 것이다.
