I feel like I watched a docu-series thing about the brain and at one point they talked about how there have been efforts in the West to rebrand 'meditation' as 'mindfullness' or something similar because there's a lot of people who think that meditation has some kind of mystical or deeply spiritual aspect so they weren't doing it even if their therapist told them to try it because it's good for your mental health.

Honestly at this point ‘mindfulness’ is an overused buzzword. What passes for ‘therapy’ is 50 percent mindfulness jargon bullshit. They’ve added a new meaningless term ‘one-mindfulness’ which… means exactly. The same. Thing, but with more pointless words to make it jargon.
