Could understanding your genetic makeup help you tailor mindfulness practices for better mental health outcomes?

Can Genetics Shape Our Approach to Mindfulness?

I’ve been gardening for years, and it’s amazing how each plant thrives under different conditions some need more sun, others more water. It got me thinking about people and mindfulness. We all respond differently to meditation or breathing exercises, right? Some of us find it calming, while others struggle to focus.

I’m curious if anyone has looked into how our genetic makeup might influence what mindfulness techniques work best for us. With my interest in genetics and tech like drones (which help me monitor my garden from above!), I wonder if there’s a way to personalize mental wellness practices based on DNA. Has anyone come across research or tried something like this? I’d love to hear your thoughts or experiences.
