Vipassana meditation, an ancient mindfulness practice rooted in the Buddhist tradition, has gained widespread recognition for its profound impact on mental and physical health. This review aims to understand the impact of positive health benefits of vipassana meditation. Studies indicate that regular practice of vipassana can reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, enhance emotional regulation, and improve overall psychological well-being. Moreover, it has been associated with improved attention, concentration, and cognitive function. Vipassana improves interpersonal connections on a physical, mental, and social level as well as organizational development and inventiveness (Fung Kei, 2016).

Positive attachment, better interpersonal relationships, a reduction in negativity, and control over anger and fear are all possible by meditation (Shah, 2012). In conclusion, there are many compelling health benefits associated with Vipassana meditation, which provides practitioners with a comprehensive approach to well-being that takes into account both mental and physical health.
