Abstract
Objectives : The objective of the study is to examine what effects the Mindfulness-based stress reduction program can have on Hwa-byung patients. Methods : Ten Hwa-byung patients have participated in this 8-week Mindfulness-based stress reduction program for Hwa-byung. In addition, participants were interviewed regarding the experiences from the changes during meditation or everyday life. Data were collected though a consumer panel and individual interviews. Responses were coded using Consensual Qualitative Research (CQR) methodology. Results : The experiences were categorized into 7 domains and divided to 23 categories. Results showed the psychotherapeutic effects of Mindfulness-based stress reduction program, specifically, positive cognitive changes, emotional stability, and changes in attitude. Also, all participants reported improvement of anger management skill and feeling of tranquility. This means that the Mindfulness-based stress reduction program can relieve the symptoms of Hwa-byung. Conclusions : Mindfulness-based stress reduction program makes changes about emotion, physical symptoms, cognition and personal relationship.
