Tania Singer, director of the Max Planck Society’s Social Neuroscience Lab in Berlin, and colleagues have undertaken a wide range of studies on mindfulness and self-awareness with the overarching goal of identifying strategies to encourage mental health, sincere relationships, and social cooperation. Their research has focused on the interpersonal aspects of HRV, exogenous emotion generation (EGE), social capacities such as compassion, empathy, and Theory of Mind, as well as interoceptive body awareness, alexithymia, and the effects of socio-affective and cognitive mental training on brain plasticity. The ReSource project, a multidisciplinary 9-month longitudinal mental training research involving over 300 participants and 90 distinct variables, was the most crucial. The researchers wanted to assess the impact of three distinct types of three-month mental training modules on brain plasticity, social connectivity, wellbeing and emotion, the immune and stress systems, interoceptive bodily awareness, social intelligence, and prosocial behaviors. These research’ findings are very important to interoceptive, mindfulness, and compassion-based treatments like Internal Family Systems therapy (IFS), whose originator Dick Schwartz will address the therapeutic consequences of Dr. Singer’s work.
