The term mindfulness is derived from ancient Buddhist and Yoga practices, it refers to a process that leads to a mental state characterized by nonjudgmental awareness of the present moment experience, including personal sensations, thoughts, bodily states, consciousness and the environment, while encouraging openness, curiosity, and acceptance. Mindfulness--based cognitive therapy （MBCT） is mainly to prevent depression relapse/recurrence, and help patients for the disengagement from the maladaptive ways such as rumination or experiential avoidance etc. The related literatures of recent years on the connotation of mindfulness and related therapies, the advantage of MBCT in preventing recurrence of depression, and the mechanism of action of MBCT and its efficacy,etc. , are reviewed in this paper.
