Mindfulness Training Improves Emotions Among Female Abdominal Cancer Patients

The mindfulness training program consisted of four 45-minute lessons, conducted once a week. After each lesson, participants were required to complete daily homework, which included the mindfulness exercises learned during that week for at least 30 minutes. The mindfulness training program was based on Kabat-Zinn's Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction and Williams' Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy. Additionally, specific contents of cancer-related mindfulness training were incorporated into this program, such as Anti-cancer Self-healing Power: 8 Lessons in Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction.
