Abstract

[Objective] The purpose of this study is to conduct a temple stay program based on Seon Buddhist meditation and confirm that the temple stay program is effective in improving mindfulness, self-compassion, and quality of life.
 [Contents] Quasi-experimental design was used to verify the effectiveness of the program targeting 27 adults in the experimental group and 29 in the control group. To this end, a temple stay program based on Seon Buddhism meditation was conducted for 3 days and 2 nights in June 2023, and the effectiveness of the program was verified by conducting a pre-post test using mindfulness, self-compassion, and quality of life scales. First, the Seon Buddhist meditation-based temple stay program was found to be effective in promoting mindfulness. Second, the Seon Buddhist meditation-based temple stay program was found to be effective in promoting self-compassion. Third, the Seon Buddhist meditation-based temple stay program was found to be effective in improving quality of life.
 [Conclusions] The results of this study are significant in that they provided basic data for the development of future temple stay programs by presenting empirical results of a temple stay program based on Seon Buddhist meditation.
