“…In this study, the level of mindfulness is lower than other reported among non-tribals in India [25], [43], [44] in the general population; however, in comparison to western patients with alcohol use disorder, the level was much lower in this study [45] . People with substance abuse may generally have lower mindfulness [46] .…”

Objective: The research aimed to investigate the levels and relationships of Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, and Dependence Severity among tribal individuals with alcohol use disorder. Methods: Two hundred tribals with alcohol use disorder were recruited at three tertiary health care centre in three districts and assessed with the Sociodemographic and clinical proforma, Cognitive and Affective Mindfulness Scale-Revised (CAMSR), The Severity of Dependence Scale (SDS), and Distress Tolerance Scale (DTS). Results: The mean score on the SDS, CAMSR, and DTS was 4.99, 23.52, and 33.44, respectively. There were no statistically significant relationships between the measure of mindfulness scores and dependence severity scores. However, the perceived capacity to endure emotional suffering and negative emotions consuming one's focus was significantly inversely linked to the severity of dependence. Conclusion: There appear to be lower levels of distress tolerance and mindfulness among tribals with alcohol use disorder. The severity of alcohol use has no significant link with mindfulness but has inversely linked with emotional distress tolerance and attention absorption by negative emotions.

“… 72 Through the behavior of being ready and physically present, providing nursing care sincerely, regardless of race, ethnicity, and religion, are credible arguments as a fundamental aspect of a caring attitude that strongly supports this statement. 73 And this is also what nurses must do to guarantee safety and security both physically and psychologically, condition the situation to be under control, arrange a comfortable room to be occupied, and coordinate and communicate easily. It also builds a relationship and mutual respect.…”

“…Teacher burnout is also negatively associated with mindfulness, which reflects in reduced turn over intentions (Cheng et al, 2021;Lee et al, 2021;Verma, 2020). During the COVID-19 pandemic, mindfulness in teachers was found to be positively associated with PWB, and negatively with traumatic stress caused by the pandemic (Nataraj & Reddy, 2013). Braun et al (2019) found that increase in teacher mindfulness was associated with better occupational health, well-being, and quality of teacher-student interaction especially in stressful situations.…”

Psychological well-being (PWB) is an indicator of the optimal functioning of individuals and can act as psychological capital. Studying PWB among school teachers can help identify factors that can prevent burnout, cope with stress, and effectively manage their classroom. This study analyses the relationship between PWB, mindfulness, and emotional intelligence of school teachers and examines the predictive capability of mindfulness and emotional intelligence for PWBs. This study uses a correlational research design. Participants (N=125) consist of female teachers recruited from English medium private schools in Bangalore, India, through a convenience sampling method. Data were collected using a survey consisting of a demographic information sheet, Scales of Psychological Well-Being (Ryff, 1989), Five Facets of Mindfulness Questionnaire (Baer et al., 2006), and Assessing Emotions Scale (Schutte et al., 2009). Results reveal that PWB has a strong association with mindfulness and a moderate association with emotional intelligence. The association between mindfulness and emotional intelligence is moderate. Data shows that mindfulness and emotional intelligence contributed to higher variance in PWB than only mindfulness. Thus, mindfulness and emotional intelligence may impact the PWB of school teachers and should be considered for school mental health programmes.
