Zindel V. Segal, one of the founders of Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT):

“I think the term meditation is just way too big to be helpful. I think what is really helpful for people is to identify specific practices that are tractable, convenient, and that suits the kind of situation they find themselves in.”

The MEDITATION RESEARCH INSTITUTE SWITZERLAND (MRIS) agrees with Zindel V. Segal. We will sooner or later find a new name for our research institute.
