EngagementModerate engagement

Several comments, particularly ones sharing or referencing the publication, suggest a moderate level of engagement, though there is little in-depth debate or detailed analysis.

ImpactModerate impact

Abstract in brief

  • Mindfulness-based therapy (MBT) shows moderate overall effectiveness for treating psychological issues based on a review of 209 studies.
  • The therapy is particularly effective in reducing anxiety, depression, and stress and performs similarly to traditional treatments like cognitive-behavioral therapy and medication.
  • While MBT is beneficial, its effectiveness varies slightly depending on the comparison group, but generally, it is a promising intervention for mental health concerns.]

@p1p7p9 @IrantzuVarela No, Lorenzo, no, porque ya solo el mindfulness, que es semejante a la meditación religiosa, tiene un claro efecto positivo semejante a una psicoterapia por sí mismo https://t.co/pH4ZwI0Tnn Y un camino religioso es mucho más profundo y complejo.
