| Summary: | Mindfulness, as a practice of focusing one's attention on the present moment without evaluating, is used in mindfulness based interventions (MBI) therapy. Traditionally, these sessions are conducted in person. At this moment, we are witnessing a global trend in which patients are turning to technology and are looking for alternative, more convenient solutions.

This paper discusses possible benefits of online conducted mindfulness sessions. |
