Mindfulness influence on psychological wellbeing: in search of cultural adaptations by Reut Paz, Nitza Davidovitch

“…Trait mindfulness was significantly negatively associated with perceived stress. The study also showed that ultra-Orthodox teachers reported a higher sense of stress than did national religious teachers.DiscussionIt is evident from the current study that mindfulness qualities may support resilience and psychological well-being among Orthodox educators, whereupon it is important to nurture these qualities among them via mindfulness-based professional development. …”
