“…Thus, mindfulness involves learning to be aware of cognitive and physical signals of high stress levels and to break the detrimental downward spiral that has been identified in past research [14][15][16]. This ability can be learned through formal practices [17,18] which are usually found in mindfulness meditation protocols such as Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT, [19]) or Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR, [20]). However, recent research shows that mindfulness as a trait can also be developed through informal practices [21] facilitating its integration in everyday life.…”

The COVID-19 lockdown increased the day-to-day challenges faced by parents, and thereby may have increased parental burnout risk. Therefore, identifying parental burnout protection factors is essential. This study aimed to assess the protective role of the following factors which can be increased through mindfulness practice: trait mindfulness, self-compassion, and concrete vs. abstract ruminations. A total of 459 parents (Mage = 40; 98.7% female) completed self-reported questionnaires at two-time points to assess the predictive role of mindfulness on parental burnout, self-compassion and rumination type, and the mediating role of self-compassion and rumination type in the relation between mindfulness and parental burnout. Results showed that trait mindfulness, self-compassion, and rumination type at Time 1 predicted levels of parental burnout at Time 2. Self-compassion (indirect effects: b = − 22, 95% CI = [−38, −05], p < 0.01), concrete ruminations (indirect effects: b = −20, 95% CI = [−32, −09], p < 0.001), and abstract ruminations (indirect effects: b = −0.54, 95% CI = [−71, −37], p < 0.001) partially mediated the relation between trait-mindfulness and parental burnout. These findings showed that trait mindfulness, self-compassion, and concrete (vs. abstract) ruminations may help prevent parental burnout in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. These results contribute to the field of research on parental burnout prevention and will allow for the development of effective approaches to mental health promotion in parents.

“…A great contribution to the spread of MBPs was given by programs developed for specific populations or contexts, such Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT). MBSR was developed for people with chronic health problems or suffering from the mounting demands associated with psychological and emotional stress (Kabat-Zinn, 1990, 2006Kabat-Zinn and Hanh, 2009); MBCT is an approach to psychotherapy that was originally created as a relapse-prevention treatment for individuals with major depressive disorder (Segal et al, 2002;Kabat-Zinn and Hanh, 2009).…”

Short-Term Meditation Training Fosters Mindfulness and Emotion Regulation: A Pilot Study

The practice of meditation has been historically linked to beneficial effects, not only in terms of spirituality but also in terms of well-being, general improvement of psychophysiological conditions and quality of life. The present study aims to assess the beneficial effects of a short-term intervention (a combination of 12 practical 1-h sessions of meditation, called Integral Meditation, and lectures on neuroscience of meditation) on psychological indicators of well-being in subjects from the general population. We used a one-group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design, in which all participants (n = 41, 17 men and 24 women, with a mean age of 41.1 years) underwent the same intervention. Out of these, 24 had already experienced meditation practice, but only 12 in a continuative way. Effects were assessed by the standardized Italian version of three self-report questionnaires: Core Outcome in Routine Evaluation-Outcome Measure (CORE-OM), Five-Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ), and Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ). The questionnaires were filled in at baseline and immediately after the last meditation session. Linear mixed effect models were used to evaluate prepost treatment changes on each outcome. Participants showed a general, close to a statistically significant threshold, improvement in the total score of CORE-OM and its different domains. The total score of FFMQ (β = 0.154, p = 0.012) indicates a statistically significant increase in the level of mindfulness as well as in the domains acting with awareness (β = 0.212, p = 0.024), and non-judging of inner experiences (β = 0.384, p < 0.0001). Lastly, we observed a statistically significant improvement in the cognitive reappraisal ERQ domain (β = 0.541, p = 0.0003). Despite some limitations (i.e., small sample size, lack of a randomised control group and sole use of "soft" measurements, such as self-report questionnaires), this study offers promising results regarding the within-subject effectiveness of our intervention that includes a meditation practice on psychological indicators, thus providing interesting preliminary results.

“…Even though these early reports suggest preliminary evidence that meditation can influence age-related cognitive decline, it remains unclear what can be expected from a standard eight-week MBI such as MBSR and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), which have typically been used in health research. Both of these eight-week programs cultivate mindfulness, an ancient Buddhist concept described as awareness that emerges through paying attention to the present moment, in an open and nonjudgmental way (Kabat-Zinn, 1990). MBCT was developed from MBSR and includes more information on depression and cognitive therapy-based exercises.…”

“…The MBSR/MBCT training consists of eight group meetings lasting two and a half hours each, plus one full day during the sixth week of the course. Both trainings incorporate the following formal meditative exercises: body scan, gentle yoga, sitting meditation, and walking meditation (Kabat-Zinn, 1990;Segal, Williams, & Teasdale, 2002). This review focuses on these two interventions (MBSR; MBCT) because they have been the most widely studied methods to induce mindfulness in clinical and nonclinical samples (Hempel et al, 2014), involve a systematic approach, have a standard protocol, are accessible, and give attention to practical application in daily life.…”

Can mindfulness-based interventions influence cognitive functioning in older adults? A review and considerations for future research

We conclude that eight-week MBI for older adults are feasible, but results on cognitive improvement are inconclusive due a limited number of studies, small sample sizes, and a high risk of bias. Rather than a narrow focus on cognitive training per se, future research may productively shift to investigate MBI as a tool to alleviate suffering in older adults, and to prevent cognitive problems in later life already in younger target populations.
