Mindfulness intervention is commonly employed to lower rumination due to its ability to target the components of the ruminative process. The current study attempts to examine how environmental settings, nature vs. urban, are able to affect the outcome of mindfulness practices in its ability to reduce rumination. A total of 316 participants completed a survey regarding their mindfulness practices, trait mindfulness, dysfunctional attitude, attention control and rumination. Data was analysed using block variable analysis. Results indicate during the initial stages of one’s practice, a naturalistic environment could help reduce rumination better than an urban environment. However, people who meditate in urban environments can better reduce their rumination levels as they persist in their practice over time.
