Mindfulness
is the practice of bringing one's
attention to the internal and external
experiences occurring in the present
moment, which can be developed
through the practice of meditation.
The term "mindfulness" is a translation
of the Pali-term, which is a significant
element of some Buddhist traditions.
The popular mindfulness movement
was initiated by Jhon Kabat-Zinn.
Studies have also shown that rumination and
worry contribute to mental illnesses such as
depression and anxiety, and that mindfulness-
based interventions are effective in the
reduction of both rumination and worry.
John Kabat-Zinn and MBSR
In 1979, John Kabat-Zinn founded the Mindfulness-
Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program at the
University of Massachusetts to treat the chronically ill.
This program sparked the application of mindfulness
ideas and practices in Medicine for the treatment of a
variety of conditions in both healthy and unhealthy
people.
MBSR and similar programs are now widely applied in
schools, prisons, hospitals, veterans centers, and other
environments.
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy
(MBCT(
MBCT is a psychological therapy designed to aid in preventing
the relapse of depression, specifically in individuals with Major
depressive disorder (MDD(.
It uses traditional cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT( methods
and adds in newer psychological strategies such as
mindfulness and mindfulness meditation.
Cognitive methods can include educating the participant about
depression.
Mindfulness and mindfulness meditation, focus on becoming
aware of all incoming thoughts and feelings and accepting
them, but not attaching or reacting to them.
MBCT
Research supports the effects of MBCT in people who have been
depressed three or more times and demonstrates reduced relapse
rates by 50%

Therapy (ACT(
ACT is an approach to psychological intervention defined
in terms of certain theoretical processes, not a specific
technology.
In theoretical and process terms we can define ACT as a
psychological intervention based on modern behavioral
psychology, including Relational Frame Theory, that
applies mindfulness and acceptance processes, and
commitment and behavior change processes, to the
creation of psychological flexibility.

Imagery
Simple Definition of imagery:
•: pictures or photographs
•: language that causes people to imagine pictures in
their mind
•: pictures of people or things in a work of art
Source: Merriam-Webster's Learner's Dictionary
Imagery-definition
means to use figurative language to represent objects,
actions and ideas in such a way that it appeals to our
physical senses.
Usually it is thought that imagery makes use of
particular words that create visual representation of
ideas in our minds.
The word imagery is associated with mental pictures.
However, this idea is but partially correct.
Imagery, to be realistic, turns out to be more
complex than just a picture.

Imagination-definition
The power of reproducing images stored in the memory
under the suggestion of associated images
(reproductive imagination( or of recombining former
experiences in the creation of new images directed at a
specific goal or aiding in the solution of problems
(creative imagination(.

Guided Imagery-definition*
Guided imagery
is a mind-body intervention by which a trained practitioner or teacher helps
a participant or patient to evoke and generate mental images that simulate
or re-create the sensory perception of sights, sounds, tastes, smells,
movements, and images associated with touch, such as texture,
temperature, and pressure, as well as imaginative or mental content that
the participant or patient experiences as defying conventional sensory
categories, and that may precipitate strong emotions or feelings in the
absence of the stimuli to which correlating sensory receptors are
receptive.
The practitioner or teacher may facilitate this process in person to an
individual or a group. Alternatively, the participant or patient may follow
guidance provided by a sound recording, video, or audiovisual media
comprising spoken instruction that may be accompanied by music or
sound.
