Description
intervention group, the Mindfulness program is implemented in eight 2-hour sessions over two months.mindfulnessIt was first employed at the University of Massachusetts by John Cobb Zayn.Mindfulness is a standardized meditation program that emerged in 1979 from an attempt to integrate Buddhist mindfulness meditation with contemporary psychological and clinical practice.During the sessions, mindfulness techniques such as seeing, hearing, body scanning, breathing and walking are taught in mindfulness.mindfulness is actually an exercise in peace of mind with the presence of the mind, and participants are trained to be aware of their state at all times, and whenever the mind wanders in thoughts or fantasies and memories, regardless of its content, return their attention to the present. Before mindfulness happens to us, we are already conditioned to react to life events and happenings, but after mindfulness happens to us, we become more alert and alert and aware of current events and Life is more complex now, and our responses to stimuli and life events will be wiser and more effective.for example Body scan: When lying down or sitting on a chair, people close their eyes and are asked to focus their attention on the parts of their body, usually starting from one foot and guided to the rest of the body and being taught emotions.
