Burnout is pervasive among physicians in academia, with costly ramifications for individuals and institutions ($100,000--900,000/faculty replacement). This research study examines the effects of the Transcendental Meditation (TM) technique on academic physician burnout, depression, insomnia, perceived stress, and resilience through a mixed methods approach.

520 $a Burnout is pervasive among physicians in academia, with costly ramifications for individuals and institutions ($100,000--900,000/faculty replacement). This research study examines the effects of the Transcendental Meditation (TM) technique on academic physician burnout, depression, insomnia, perceived stress, and resilience through a mixed methods approach.
520 $a This randomized controlled trial, conducted with 40 academic physicians at a medical school hospital and affiliated VA hospital represented fifteen specialties with an average age of 45 years. Random assignment was to the experimental (TM) group (n = 21) or the wait-list control group (n = 19). The TM technique, a simple mental procedure practiced 20 minutes twice daily, allows the mind and body to experience a unique state of restful alertness.
520 $a Physicians were quantitatively measured at three intervals: baseline, one-month, and four-months using five measures: Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), Beck Depression Inventory-II, Insomnia Severity Index, Perceived Stress Scale, and Brief Resilience Scale. Qualitative assessments were two 30-minute interviews at baseline and four-months posttest.
520 $a Repeated measures analysis of covariance was used to assess adjusted mean changed scores for the one and four month posttests. Results supported the hypothesis that practice of the TM technique significantly decreases: burnout (p < .014), depression (p < .008), and insomnia (p < .031) compared with controls. Results did not significantly support the hypothesis that perceived stress decreases (p < .778) or that resilience increases (p < .554).
520 $a Qualitative data was analyzed using a phenomenological approach to identify main and sub themes from the interviews. Pretest interviews described symptoms of burnout defined by the MBI: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and lack of personal achievement. Physicians reported experiences of: insomnia, stress, time management conflicts, lack of autonomy and support, and lack of balance in all areas of life. Posttest interviews with the TM group indicated physicians experienced relief from burnout symptoms such as: less anxiety and stress; increased calm, energy, and clearer thinking; greater efficiency; and improved relationships with staff, patients and family.
520 $a These mixed methods findings suggest that the TM technique is a viable and effective method to reduce symptoms of physician burnout.
