Mais do que uma técnica de meditação, o Mindfulness é atualmente considerado como um instrumento que capacita e empodera os cidadãos para a promoção e educação para a saúde, nomeadamente no que diz respeito ao aumento da literacia em saúde e à tomada de decisão em saúde.  Objetivos:  Aumentar o conhecimento sobre os conceitos supracitados, simplificar, clarificar e torná-los úteis, esclarecer sobre o enquadramento destas práticas no contexto de saúde português e contribuir para o aumento da consciência sobre a importância da colaboração entre especialidades.  Metodologia: Foram consultadas e citadas 46 fontes, entre artigos científicos, teses, relatórios, livros e ebooks, num total de 68 autores distintos e 5 intituições de refência nacional e internacional. Conclusão: O contexto social e científico atual é favorável para a introdução do Mindfulness nos diferentes setores da sociedade portuguesa, podendo esse facto ser determinante para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar da população e da qualidade de vida em geral.  Ponteditora2022-12-23info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdftext/xmlhttps://doi.org/10.29073/jim.v3i2.664https://doi.org/10.29073/jim.v3i2.664JIM – Journal of Medical Research; Vol. 3 No. 2 (2022): JIM - Jornal de Investigação Médica; 57-76JIM - Jornal de Investigação Médica ; Vol. 3 N.º 2 (2022): JIM - Jornal de Investigação Médica; 57-762184-750910.29073/jim.v3i2reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://revistas.ponteditora.org/index.php/jim/article/view/664https://revistas.ponteditora.org/index.php/jim/article/view/664/565https://revistas.ponteditora.org/index.php/jim/article/view/664/566Direitos de Autor (c) 2022 JIM - Jornal de Investigação Médicainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAmaral, PascoalPinheiro, Diana2022-12-24T05:45:49Zoai:revistas.ponteditora.org:article/664Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:28:51.237577Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
