RUEDA, Pilar. Mindfulness into the clinical practice: breathing and self-compassion practices. Escritos de Psicología [online]. 2022, vol.15, n.1, pp.50-58. Epub 27-Sep-2022. ISSN 1989-3809. https://dx.doi.org/10.24310/espsiescpsi.v15i1.13971.
The purpose of this case study is to present practical examples of interventions carried out in clinical practice using mindfulness techniques. In recent years, it has been demonstrated that mindfulness is a powerful treatment, able to produce changes at both biological and physiological levels as well as on well-being, through the reduction of the symptoms of stress, anxiety, depression and ruminative thoughts. This study is of a psychological intervention mainly focused on mindful breathing, meditation, and exercises of self-compassion in two patients (women aged 31 and 44 years) with anxious and depressive symptoms. Some of the exercises used and the results obtained are explained: reduction of anxiety, reduction of depressive symptoms, and increase of well-being. The identification data has been changed to preserve the patients' anonymity. Informed consent was obtained to publish their cases.
