We examined the effect of mindfulness meditation on self-motion perception (vection). We measured the strength of vection after two conditions: with- and without-meditation. The results showed that vection was significantly weaker in the with-meditation condition than without-meditation condition. We speculated that mindfulness meditation induced lower arousal level in the participants and such modulation in the participants' self-sensation could inhibit vection. We conclude that vection strength can be modulated by our mental states.
