The clinical value, principle, and basic practical technique of mindfulness intervention

正念干预是基于佛教修行的冥想,结合当代心理学理论和方法所发展的一种心理疗法。近年来的实证研究表明正念干预在降低抑郁复发,缓解抑郁、焦虑症状,减少物质滥用,减轻疼痛,血压管理,提高免疫力,改善睡眠等方面的应用均产生了良好的效果。当前,正念疗法在欧美心理治疗界中已成为心理治疗的主流。近几年我国心理学界和心理治疗领域也开始对正念治疗进行介绍,但在临床精神健康领域却缺乏相关的实践和研究。本文将对正念的概念,干预的基本机制,临床实践中的基本技能和指导原则简要介绍。

Summary： Mindfulness intervention is a psychotherapy based on the Buddhist practice of meditation, combining the theories and methodology of contemporary psychology. The empirical research in recent years has indicated that mindfulness intervention yields favorable results including reduction of depression relapse, alleviation of the symptoms of depression and anxiety, reduction of substance abuse, relief of pain, blood pressure management, enhancement of immunity, and improvement of sleep. Currently, mindfulness therapy has become the mainstream of psychotherapy in the realm of European and American psychotherapy. The fields of psychology and psychotherapy in China have also begun to introduce mindfulness intervention in recent years. However, there is a lack of relevant practice and research in the field of clinical mental health. This article will briefly introduce the concept of mindfulness, the basic mechanism of the intervention, and the basic skills and guidelines in clinical practice.
