A Way to Bring Mindfulness into Relapse Prevention
by Nuwan Fonseka

The majority of individuals in recovery react to their complicated states and challenging situations without thinking mindfully. Most of their reactions are automatic, which can create several conflicting situations such as anger, violence, and intimate partner abuse.

The mindfulness practices in MBRP are intended to increase discriminative awareness with a specific focus on the acceptance of uncomfortable states or challenging situations without reacting “automatically” (Bowen et al., 2014). Mindfulness is an excellent tool to bond recovery in bio-psycho-social-spiritually.

​Individuals practicing mindfulness during their recovery journey can develop the skill of discriminative awareness. Most of the time, cravings are triggered in direct connection with reacting “automatically” without mindfulness, causing individuals to relapse and drop from the stages of change. Mindfulness-based programs have proven effective not only in increasing mindfulness, but in helping participants successfully experience their clinical work: productive therapy, counseling, residential, and aftercare.

Mindfulness-based techniques are identified as healthy. Patients in residential or inpatient treatment who also practice mindfulness-based techniques can expect more successful outcomes than patients not practicing mindfulness.

​The neuroscience research of mindfulness meditation is one of the major research fields in psychology and neurobiology. Its goal is to better understand the neural systems that are utilized in order to achieve meditative states and also to determine the effects that regular practices of mindfulness have on brain function and structure (Treadway and Lazar, 2009).  

The first is state effects. State effects are recognized by the meditator who has been using meditation alongside relative meditative practices such as appropriate foods, sitting positions (asana), and emotional practices. Being aware of the subtlety of state effects can be beneficial for clinicians in helping to determine how mindfulness can be best utilized to help patients suffering from chronic stress, trauma, complicated grief, painful memories, and bursts of emotions.
