“…The MBSR core curriculum was later incorporated into MBCT, as an adaptation for preventing relapse in adults with previous depression (Segal et al 2002). MBSR and MBCT include a series of mindfulness meditation practices drawn from Buddhist origins applied in a secular context, offering universal applications not tied to religious or philosophical traditions (Baer 2003;Dryden and Still 2006;Kabat-Zinn 1990).…”

Interest in applications of mindfulness-based approaches with adults has grown rapidly in recent times, and there is an expanding research base that suggests these are efficacious approaches to promoting psychological health and well-being. Interest has spread to applications of mindfulness-based approaches with children and adolescents, yet the research is still in its infancy. I aim to provide a preliminary review of the current research base of mindfulness-based approaches with children and adolescents, focusing on MBSR/MBCT models, which place the regular practice of mindfulness meditation at the core of the intervention. Overall, the current research base provides support for the feasibility of mindfulness-based interventions with children and adolescents, however there is no generalized empirical evidence of the efficacy of these interventions. For the field to advance, I suggest that research needs to shift away from feasibility studies towards large, well-designed studies with robust methodologies, and adopt standardized formats for interventions, allowing for replication and comparison studies, to develop a firm research evidence base.

“…Mindfulness has ancient origins, with a presence in many contemplative traditions, particularly in Buddhism (Allen et al 2006;Baer 2003;Dimidjian and Linehan 2003;Dryden and Still 2006). The term mindfulness is a controversial translation of the Pali word sati, a term from ancient Theravada Buddhist texts (Thera 1962).…”

What Facets of Mindfulness Contribute to Psychological Well-being and Depressive, Anxious, and Stress-related Symptomatology?

2010

Since the 1980s, mindfulness techniques have been increasingly utilized in clinical psychology, often as an adjunct to cognitive or behavioral interventions and with a growing evidence base. According to a five-facet operationalization, mindfulness is a capacity to (a) observe, (b) describe, and (c) act with awareness of present moment experience, with a (d) nonjudgmental and (e) nonreactive attitude. The aim of this study was to identify which of the five facets of mindfulness predicts psychological well-being and symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress in a community sample comprising nonmeditators and experienced meditators. Participants were recruited from meditation organizations (Vipassana and Zen) as well as undergraduate psychology students (N=106). Participants completed a Web-based questionnaire assessing mindfulness, psychological symptoms, and well-being. A higher degree of the nonjudgmental aspect of mindfulness was found to predict lower levels of depression, anxiety, and stress-related symptomatology. A higher degree of the act with awareness of present moment experience aspect of mindfulness was found to predict lower depressive symptomatology. Improved knowledge of the relationship between specific facets of mindfulness and specific psychological symptoms may improve intervention development and the clinical use of mindfulness.

“…A potencial utilidade da prática pessoal de mindfulness para terapeutas é uma qualidade terapêutica desejável, quer a nível pessoal, quer a nível profissional (Hick, 2008;Dryden & Still, 2006;Stanley et al, 2006). Germer (2005) defende que a mindfulness pode "tornar-se um constructo que aproxima a teoria clínica, a investigação e a prática, e ajuda a integrar as vidas pessoal e profissional dos terapeutas" (p. 11).…”

A influência das características do psicoterapeuta, no processo e nos resultados da intervenção psicoterapêutica, tem sido amplamente reconhecida, independentemente do modelo teórico. Assumindo-se o interesse no estudo das competências terapêuticas não "técnicas", necessárias para a prática clínica, reflecte-se sobre os constructos mindfulness e psychological mindedness, enquanto características relativamente estáveis da consciência da experiência e do self do psicoterapeuta, que podem manifestar--se como posturas terapêuticas distintas. Acreditamos que os terapeutas mais mindful e/ou psychologically minded, oscilando responsivamente entre as duas posturas terapêuticas, poderão verificar nos seus pacientes, uma maior capacidade estrutural, associada a um aumento da consciência da experiência e do self, obtido através da assimilação de objectivos estratégicos específicos de fase 2, do Metamodelo de Complementaridade Paradigmática (Vasco, 2006). É apontada a relevância clínica de se considerar a mindfulness e a psychological mindedness como posturas terapêuticas complementares, salientando-se a necessidade de se encontrar uma definição operacional dos constructos. Palavras-chave:Mindfulness, Psychological mindedness, Posturas terapêuticas, Consciência da experiência e do self, Metamodelo de complementaridade paradigmática. Introdução A importância do terapeuta em psicoterapiaA relação terapêutica assume uma importância primordial no desenrolar positivo e no resultado do processo terapêutico. A presença, a atitude e a postura terapêuticas, enquanto elementos da experiência da relação, parecem constituir, mais do que as técnicas que são utilizadas, a essência da ajuda terapêutica (Fox,
