2019年5月15日(水) 15:30 〜 17:00 第7会場 (1F Room C-1)

Organizer/Chair: Yeung-Shan, Samuel WONG(Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong)
Facilitator: Yeung-Shan, Samuel WONG, Kam-Pui Eric, Lee(Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong)

Evidence shows that mindfulness-based interventions are effective for improving mental health. For example, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is now established as one of the recommended non-pharmacological interventions for people with recurrent depression. In this workshop, a brief update on current evidence for mindfulness-based interventions for both mental and physical health problems, including recent research with respect to the benefits on reducing burnout among health professionals (primary care doctors) will be presented. The brief presentation will be followed by an experiential component with a “taste” session on one of the mindfulness practices such that participants can gain a better understanding on what is taught during the popular 8-week mindfulness-based cognitive therapy/mindfulness-based stress reduction programme.

Objectives & Learning Outcomes:
At the end of the session, participants will be able to
• describe the most up-to-date evidence on the use of mindfulness-based interventions on common health problems
• describe the potential benefits of using mindfulness skills in doctor-patient communications and for reducing burnout among health professionals
