J Affect Disord January 4, 2022 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2022.01.027 via PubMed Central
Summary
A mixed-methods systematic review examined whether virtual mindfulness interventions improve well-being in adults. The review synthesized evidence from multiple studies and suggests that such interventions can reduce stress and enhance mental health, though the magnitude of effects varied across studies. The authors indicate that virtual formats offer accessible alternatives to in-person programs, but caution that the quality of evidence is limited by heterogeneity in study designs and outcome measures. No definitive conclusions about long-term benefits were drawn.
