The Potential Benefits of a Mindfulness-based Compassion Intervention (MBCI) on Bio-Psycho-spiritual Well-being of Chinese with Cancer: A 2-arm Randomized-controlled Pilot Study

摘要

Background: Self-compassion is the self-directed loving attitude in times of adversity; it is associated with well-being and better adjustment to stress among individuals exposing to hypothetical stressors. Nevertheless, we know little about the clinical application of self-compassion in coping with life-threatening situations. This randomized-controlled pilot study explored the potential benefits of an 8-week Mindfulness-based Compassion Intervention (MBCI) on self-compassion and bio-psycho-spiritual outcomes of people with cancer.
