Anxiety is a common psychological issue among older adults, especially those living in social institutions due to environmental changes, loss of social roles, and limited family interaction. A non-pharmacological intervention, mindfulness therapy, was applied to 32 older adults at a social home in Palembang. Using a one-group pretest-posttest design, the study found a statistically significant reduction in anxiety scores (p = 0.000), indicating that mindfulness therapy can decrease anxiety in this population. The authors recommend mindfulness therapy as a complementary approach to support mental health and improve quality of life for older adults.
