Abstract:
Mindfulness is the fundamental attentional stance underlying all streams of Buddhist meditative practice. It has been described as "paying attention in a particular way: on purpose, in the present moment, and nonjudgmentally."

In this paper, the author considers the mechanisms that may explain how mindfulness skills can lead to symptom reduction and behavior change in different emotional disorders and in anxiety disorders.
