Chinese experts consensus on mindfulness intervention

Mindfulness related empirical studies in China has been rapidly developed in recent years. Meanwhile, the practice of mindfulness intervention is diversified, and the degree of professionalism and norm is still uneven. The guidance of mindfulness research in practice and the integration between mindfulness research and practice are yet to be strengthened. This consensus discusses the definition and overview of mindfulness, the effects in body and mind of mindfulness, the requirements of mindfulness application, the common mindfulness exercises and mindfulness related interventions. It is our hope that the consensus will enhance the scientificity, normalization and quality of mindfulness related research, practice, education and propaganda.
