Previous studies have found that short-term integrative body–mind training (IBMT) has
positive effects on the brain structure and function in the anterior cingulate cortex. Here, we
determined whether 11 h of IBMT alters topological properties of the anterior cingulate
cortex in brain functional networks. We applied network analysis to resting-state functional
connectivity between 90 cortical and subcortical regions before and after IBMT and
relaxation training. The results demonstrated a significant increase in the network efficiency�…
