Mindfulness is a practice used to free the mind of intrusive thoughts. It involves focusing the mind to attain a meditative state. A meditative state is a relaxed or effortless mental and physical state. One popular form of mindfulness is mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR).

Mindfulness is most commonly used for conditions involving stress, anxiety, and pain. It has also been tried for Alzheimer disease, autism, depression, and many other conditions but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses.
