Abstract

Stress is a natural response to being unable to cope with specific demands and events. Even though it is a well-known fact that almost everyone is facing stress, discussing stress is still taboo. Stress has been something everyone has been expected to ‘adapt to’ since ‘everyone else is doing it.‘ Day by day, people feel burdened and pressured, wanting to handle their stress yet feeling like they meet dead ends. Stress sparks emotional tension, growing tiredness, overstrain, and discomfort, which affect one's health, both mentally and physically. However, with mindfulness practices, people learn how to focus on the present moment and tend to have the ability to be calm, leading to better reactions to stressful situations. This study is timely by exploring the implementation of mindfulness intervention in managing stress and improving well-being. In essence, mindfulness allows someone to be non-judgemental about their feelings and situations as they are in the present moment. By practicing mindfulness, people will have a better approach to managing their stress, have an accepting mind, and be happier.
