Abstract
Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) have a growing body of support in the literature and are increasingly popular for treating a variety of mental health disorders. The two most investigated MBIs include Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT).
We provide a comprehensive up-to-date review of MBIs for reducing anxiety and depression in a broad range of clinical populations.
MBIs outperformed passive controls for treating anxiety and depression. However, the effect sizes are mixed when compared to active controls.
