Design Methodology Approach – The empirical study involves designing a questionnaire to study the impact of an online meditation program on the participants.

The major causes for shortfall in effectiveness were – 1. It was difficult to practice and listen and watch at the same time 2. Participants found difficulty in breathing 3. Scientific reasons for doing meditation were not known to participants 4. Health problems acted as a restriction 4. Teaching focused on subject more than the learner Research limitations implications– The meditation program was of 21 days and was free of cost and was attended by large number of participants but very less number of people came forward for feedback.2.The attendance could not be mapped.3 The access of internet in rural areas is a major limitation in the reach of such programs across the globe. Originality value – This study focuses on effectiveness of online meditation programs and a unique questionnaire is designed based on the literature review related to Stress, Superbrain yoga and Sudarshan Kriya Yoga, Essentials of Educational Technology and Global Health Estimates of suicides in the world by World Health Organization and other related researches Joohi Chaturvedi | Dr. Mahima Rai | Abhinav Chaturvedi "Effectiveness of Online Meditation Programs" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-4 | Issue-6 , October 2020, URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/papers/ijtsrd33582.pdf Paper Url: https://www.ijtsrd.com/management/other/33582/effectiveness-of-online-meditation-programs/joohi-chaturvedi
