“…MBI has been found to affect 'intolerance of uncertainty' and 'anxiety sensitivity' in patients with PD, 'worry' feature in those with GAD, low self-esteem in social anxiety patients and emotional self-regulation in depressed patients. 23, [35][36][37][38] Some studies have also demonstrated that the improvement in the depression and anxiety symptoms paralleled with improvement in the mindfulness. [47][48][49]51,57,60 However, studies that tested MBSR or its modified version and traditional meditation didn't demonstrate significant effect in depressive symptoms, for examples, 'Vipassana mindfulness approach' in alcohol dependent patients, MBSR for depression in prenatal depression, stress coping program based on mindfulness meditation and 'Mindfulness-Based Therapy and Counseling' (MBTC) in nursing students.…”

“…The authors noted that MBCT also significantly improved self-esteem at the end of treatment. 37 A single RCT demonstrated MBSR to be effective in reducing anxiety, worry and depressive symptoms in participants with GAD. 38 A trial without control from India tested the efficacy of mindfulness-integrated cognitive behavior therapy (MiCBT) on participants with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) with mild to moderate obsessive symptoms and no or minimal compulsions.…”

Introduction: Mindfulness based interventions (MBIs) have emerged as effective interventions for various psychiatric conditions including depression and anxiety. Asia being home to Buddhist tradition, it will be interesting to explore the trend and efficacy of MBIs in Asian population in Asian settings. The aim of this study is to perform a systematic review of mindfulness based interventions (MBIs) for management of depression and anxiety (disorders or symptoms) in Asian population. Material And Method: Two researchers independently searched for literature published between January 2007 to December 2018 in Medline, Google Scholar, PsychInfo and Cochrane library using the search terms - ‘Mindfulness/Vipassana’ combined with ‘meditation’, ‘intervention’ ‘therapy’, ‘depression', ‘anxiety’ ‘Asia’ etc. Further, publications were also identified from the references recited in the retrieved articles. After screening 185 articles and applying the eligibility criteria, 40 articles were finally selected for the systematic review. Results: Out of 40 selected articles, 33 articles were controlled trials and 7 had a pre-post test design without any control group. Most of the published studies have evaluated MBCT and MBSR for depressive and anxiety symptoms in different settings. Some of the studies have tested traditional Buddhist meditation and modified models. Overall, MBCT and MBSR seem to be efficacious over ‘routine treatment’ or ‘no treatment’ control for reducing depressive and anxiety symptoms at the end of the treatment. Studies which have modified MBIs based on MBCT/MBSR models have also demonstrated their feasibility and short term efficacy in specific populations like medical professionals with evidence for short term efficacy. Conclusion: Overall, there is emerging evidence of MBIs for depression and anxiety across diverse settings in Asia. Future research should address methodological limitations of current research to strengthen the evidence.

“…This margin reflects the change in MAAS-A scores found in the initial validation study of the MAAS in adolescents using an in-person program [ 41 ]. Unfortunately, the convenient sample size of 60 participants used for this study will not allow sufficient power to demonstrate noninferiority of secondary outcomes assessed by standardized questionnaires, based on recent mindfulness studies using these measures in adolescent populations [ 44 , 45 ].…”

BackgroundEight-week mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) have a beneficial impact on mental health and well-being in adolescents with chronic health conditions. Usually delivered in person in a group setting, these programs are difficult to access for teens with disabilities or who do not have in-person MBIs available in their communities.ObjectiveThis paper outlines the rationale, development, and design of a randomized controlled trial comparing the effects of an MBI delivered in person or via eHealth in adolescents with a chronic illness. Quantitative outcomes will include mindfulness skills acquisition (primary outcome), effects of the MBI on self-reported mood, anxiety, self-esteem, illness perception, and physiological stress (via salivary cortisol), and qualitative outcomes will include individual practice, participant appreciation, and adaptation of the MBI for eHealth.MethodsThis is a randomized noninferiority mixed methods study comparing 2 MBI arms: in-person and eHealth. Participants are eligible to participate if they are aged 13 to 18 years, have a diagnosis of chronic medical condition, live close enough to the recruitment hospital to participate in the in-person arm of the study, and are currently followed by a health care provider. Each participant will receive an adapted 8-week MBI delivered either in person at a tertiary pediatric hospital or via a secure audio-visual platform allowing group interactions in real time. Groups will be facilitated by 2 experienced mindfulness providers. Quantitative and qualitative data will be collected through standardized research questionnaires administered via a secure, youth-friendly online platform and through semistructured interviews, participant log books, facilitator log books, and salivary cortisol analysis. Qualitative data will be analyzed using a grounded theory model.ResultsData collection is currently underway. Data analysis, manuscript writing, and additional publications are expected to be completed in the winter and spring of 2018.ConclusionsBased on previous results from in-person trials conducted in adolescents and eHealth trials conducted in adults, we anticipate that both modes of delivery will significantly improve mindfulness skills acquisition, mood, anxiety, self-esteem, illness perception, and stress and that the magnitude of the effects will be correlated to the level of home practice. We predict that participants in both arms will show similar levels of home practice and that both modes of delivery will have high levels of feasibility and acceptability. If successful, this study could provide evidence for the use of eHealth in the delivery of 8-week MBIs in clinical adolescent populations, potentially increasing availability to MBIs for a large group of youth with mobility issues or living away from large urban centers.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.org NCT03067207; https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03067207 (archived by WebCite at http://www.webcitation.org/6v4ZK8RBH)

Various studies across the globe have emphasized that students undertaking professional courses, such as engineering are subjected to higher stress. Excessive stress could lead to psychological problems like depression and anxiety. The objective of the current study is to make a survey to assess stress among students and its association with various academic, social and health-related factors. Originates of stress especially for students have different sources such as mobile phones and social networks. Signs of stress are tension, anxiety, angry, frustrated or irritated by things over which he has no control.Stress also influences the desire and performance in studies, and one's general attitude toward life .The stress response can be measured and evaluated in terms of perceptual, behavioral, and physical responses. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a widely used psychotherapeutic treatment that targets maladaptive thought patterns affecting behavioral change and emotional wellbeing. Yoga offers many positive effects on cognitive faculties, reduction of stress and emotional intensity. Therefore a shambavi Mahamudra yoga enhanced CBT technique is analyzed to reduce stress in students and improve their overall performance.
