Introduction Virtual reality (VR)-based mindfulness programs are gaining traction as innovative, engaging, and low-cost tools to address chronic pain, depression, and anxiety. However, these programs are often designed for neurologically normative populations while lacking accessibility for people with disabilities, such as spinal cord injury (SCI). This protocol describes a participatory...

Cancer patients arrive for psilocybin therapy with bodies altered by illness and treatment — bodies that they have learned to brace against, dissociate from, or scan for threat. Research on psilocybin-assisted therapy for cancer-related depression and anxiety consistently identifies the quality of the acute subjective experience — reflected in constructs such as acceptance, surrender,...

Chapter 4 explores how Thích Nhất Hạnh translates insight into lived practice through meditation, Zen sensibility, and mindful engagement with everyday activities. Grounded in foundational suttas—including the Ānāpānasati, Satipaṭṭhāna, Bhaddekaratta, and Alagaddupama Suttas—the chapter presents meditation as a holistic discipline of stopping, looking deeply, and ethical responsiveness. It...

The present pilot study examined burnout symptoms among frontline mental health workers in Mobile Crisis Teams (MCTs) and explored their associations with perceived work climate (an indicator of organizational resources) and individual mindfulness (an indicator of personal resources) after controlling for sex, race, and work experience, based on the Job Demands-Resources model. Survey data were...

Rates of anxiety, depression, and psychological distress among young adults have increased while mental health services face persistent capacity constraints, strengthening the need for accessible, low-intensity preventive support. Mindfulness-based programmes (MBPs) are widely promoted as one possible response. However, their effects across young adult populations and delivery contexts remain...

Abstract Objectives In recent years, mindfulness has entered the scientific discourse, holding significant therapeutic potential. However, findings regarding its neurobiological basis have been inconsistent. Trait mindfulness comprises distinct dimensions, two of them are presence and acceptance, but neural correlates accompanying them remain largely underexplored. This study focuses on...

This research addresses the central complex of how the relationship between the sacred and sexual is problematised and plays out over the course of individuation. Jung articulated it as core to his relationship with Freud breaking down, describing a split between the secular (which becomes sexualised) and the spiritual (which becomes desexualised). Such a division can be understood, via a...

Debates on mindfulness in education often oscillate between therapeutic affirmation and ideological critique while largely neglecting questions of epistemic and normative justification. This article develops an alternative framework grounded in analytic philosophy of education. Drawing on Metzinger’s (2024) account of mindfulness as epistemic openness, Bowell, Cowan, and Kemp's (2020) critical...

Background: Trait mindfulness is linked with improving attention, regulation of emotional, and adaptive coping. It can enhance cognitive flexibility and emotional resilience, which are essential things for paramedical students who are facing difficult academic and clinical environments. However, very less evidence exists regarding these relationships in Indian paramedical students. Methods: A...

To evaluate the effectiveness of mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs), including but not limited to mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), and other structured MBIs, in improving cognitive and psychological outcomes in adults with neurological disorders. We searched six databases through April 25, 2025. Eight randomized controlled trials were...

Immersive virtual reality (VR) and neurofeedback (NF) are increasingly promoted to enhance mindfulness meditation, yet it remains unknown whether these externally engaging technologies confer lasting benefits for trait mindfulness over sustained practice. This longitudinal randomized controlled trial compared three conditions over a 4-week program (eight sessions) with a three-month follow-up:...

Burnout constitutes a critical psychological and operational challenge in military environments, with potential implications for well-being and occupational functioning. Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy has shown beneficial effects on stress and burnout across different populations; however, little is known about how brief online adaptations are perceived by active-duty military personnel...

This study tested a self-report psychological intervention in an 8-week app-based mental training program (MindSprint) using a two-arm, parallel randomized controlled trial involving 70 track athletes allocated to an intervention group (n = 35) or waitlist control (n = 35) and assessed at baseline (T0), week 4 (T1), week 8 (T2), and week 12 follow-up (T3). Five participants withdrew from the...

ABSTRACT Mindfulness correlates with higher life satisfaction, yet consumer wellbeing research rarely specifies the behavioral route through which this relationship emerges. Drawing on self‐regulation theory, the research proposes mindful consumption as that route and, drawing on self‐determination theory, evaluates meditation regularity as a boundary condition. Meditation regularity is...

Fronto-occipital theta coupling is treated as a single quantity. We show it decomposes into two timescales with opposite behavior. At the slow timescale (30-s theta power envelope), high spatial coverage correlates with decoupling (rho = -0.252, p = 0.015, N = 93). At the fast timescale (instantaneous phase), the correlation is positive (rho = +0.100, p = 0.34). Across four tasks and two...

Background and purpose Mindfulness training benefits athletes’ psychological states and performance, but how mindfulness translates into competitive experience remains unclear. This study examines whether attentional control is the psychological pathway from trait mindfulness to race flow in competitive swimmers, and whether this pathway extends to objective pacing accuracy. Methods A...

Background: Breast cancer is the most common invasive cancer among women world- wide. While advancements in early diagnosis and treatment have improved survival rates, many breast cancer patients experience persistent sleep disturbances, anxiety, and stress, which negatively impact their quality of life. Pharmacological treatments for sleep disor- ders pose risks such as dependency and side...

Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) have become a prominent approach for addressing student mental health in higher education, yet the intellectual structure of this literature has not been systematically mapped. This study describes publication trends, productive contributors, collaboration patterns, and thematic structure of research on MBIs for university student mental health. A...

Emotion dysregulation in adolescence is linked to impaired functioning and later psychopathology, so protective psychological resources deserve attention. This study tested whether self-compassion mediates the relationship between mindfulness and emotion dysregulation among college students. A cross-sectional correlational design was used with a convenience sample of 300 students (141 males,...
