“…Decentring in mindfulness aims to reduce participants’ experiences of avoidance, allowing them to turn towards and accept distressing thoughts and feelings. Previous studies have also shown that decentring acted as a mediator of mindfulness interventions in improving psychological well‐being (Josefsson, Lindwall, & Broberg, ), depressive symptoms (Bieling et al ., ; Gecht et al ., ; Hargus, Crane, Barnhofer, & Williams, ), and anxiety (Hayes‐Skelton & Graham, ; Hoge et al ., ). Here, we showed that decentring may mediate the relationship between mindfulness and emotional distress in people with MS, and it is something that might change quicker than acceptance.…”
