Benefits of mindfulness for mental well-being

Benefits of mindfulness for mental well-being

13 Jan 2024 by Ted Escobedo   2 min read

Mindfulness practices can have a positive effect on mental well-being and can help people develop healthy thought patterns. Practicing mindfulness may help people learn how to avoid getting stuck in negative thought patterns. This can help improve their mood and feel better overall.
By becoming more mindful, people can learn to let go of the past and not worry about the future. This allows them to be more present, which can reduce stress and worry. Being mindful may also reduce some symptoms of anxiety and depression.
According to a small 2019 study published in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, people who practiced focusing attention meditation and open monitoring meditation experienced positive effects on their anxiety, depression, and rumination. The meditation practices also improved their mindfulness and emotional states.
Through mindfulness practices, people may learn to better regulate their emotions. They may also become more calm, patient, and empathetic.
