Effectiveness of Mindfulness Based Intervention In Anxiety Disorder: A Qualitative Case Study
Suvosree Bhattacharya, Pritha Mukhopadhyay
A three-month mindfulness-based intervention helped three people with anxiety disorders feel more in control of their emotions and less trapped by anxiety. Before the intervention, participants described living with anxiety and using available resources to cope. After the intervention, the nature of those coping resources shifted, and participants reported an evolved sense of self, greater self-confidence, and improved quality of life. The analysis suggests that the process of change involves both a shift in how individuals use resources and a transformed perception of themselves.
