Description
Summary:Aim: to think critically about the limits and potentialities of mindfulness for nursing care, exploring available scientific evidence, its use in health care and nursing care. Method: the critical thinking based itself on the topics: Mindfulness and scientific evidence, Mindfulness in health care, and Mindfulness in nursing care. Results: the potential of mindfulness interventions was evidenced to treat and prevent stress-related problems and to promote coping strategies considered more assertive, both for clients and for the nursing professionals themselves. The limitations involved the insipidity of the subject in the scope of Brazilian nursing and in the design of the studies, since interventions based on mindfulness require longer protocols that require training and engagement in the practice. Final considerations: evidence syndicate several potentialities of mindfulness based interventions for self-care and attention to users and families, promoting comprehensive care and prescribing an innovative perspective for care.
