Abstract in brief

  • The meta-analysis reviewed 29 studies involving healthy adults and found that Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) has a moderate effect on reducing stress, anxiety, depression, and distress, while improving quality of life, with these benefits sustained for approximately 19 weeks.
  • The results showed large effects on stress, moderate effects on mental health outcomes, and small effects on burnout, with changes in mindfulness and compassion linked to improvements in clinical measures post-treatment and during follow-up.
  • Despite promising findings, the review highlighted high variability among studies due to differences in design and protocols, indicating that further research is needed to determine the most effective components of MBSR.
