Attitudes toward death that involve fear, avoidance, approach, and escape acceptance are linked with higher death anxiety, while dispositional mindfulness and a tranquil ego are linked with lower death anxiety. Among 209 Indian adults who recovered from COVID-19 symptoms, path analyses indicated that mindfulness and a tranquil ego sequentially mediate the relationship between death attitudes and death anxiety. The findings suggest that different aspects of how people view death predict anxiety about death in distinct ways, and that cultivating mindfulness and a calm sense of self may help reduce that anxiety.

Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) may reduce emotional exhaustion in critical care nurses. The study examined the effects of an MBCT program on burnout symptoms in nurses working in intensive care units. Results indicated that participants who completed the MBCT intervention reported lower levels of emotional exhaustion compared to a control group. The findings suggest that MBCT could be a useful psychological strategy for supporting the well-being of nurses in high-stress environments.
