Diabetes Distress is Mitigated by Mindfulness Exercises

By Parmjit Singh, PhD | Body, Body Mind Spirit, Mind, What's New | 0 comment | 6 February, 2020 | 0

Diabetes distress.mindfulness. obesity. hunger. mindful eatingDo mindfulness exercises reduce diabetes distress? Diabetes distress and its burden can have significant impact on the quality of life. In addition to standard treatment, scientists have been exploring the likely effect of mindfulness training on this condition.

One such recent meta-analytic study (a better indicator of evidence) published in the BMJ Open Diabetes Care & Research indicated that mindfulness-based interventions are promising adjunct intervention to decrease the distress associated with this disorder. The effect was significantly positive in the long term over short term.

It is possible that long-term mindfulness exercises and practice allowed individuals to develop the skills of non-reactivity and acceptance thus reducing the level of distress. Focusing on proper method of eating is also helpful in managing weight and distress related to diabetes.
