The study found undergraduate students who spent 20 minutes playing a cozy game experienced the same calming sensations as those who engaged in 20 minutes of mindfulness activity.
This is wonderful. I keep seeing "the health benefits of meditation!" everywhere and it's… I get it's supposed to be good for you but I really don't want to do it—my life, my choices on healthy things I do not want to do. Cozy gaming is more my speed, and it looks that at least for calming sensations, that's an equivalent substitute.
