Article Synopsis
- Portuguese-speaking immigrants in the U.S. face high levels of psychological distress, with a need for culturally relevant mental health interventions; mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) show promise but lack diversity in research.
- A pilot study explored the feasibility and acceptability of an 8-week Mindfulness Training for Primary Care (MTPC) program tailored for this population, highlighting its integration into healthcare systems.
- Results indicated high participant satisfaction and positive preliminary effects on mental health outcomes, including reductions in depression and anxiety, along with recommendations for culturally responsive changes to the program.
