Langerian mindfulness

A 3-week Langerian mindfulness intervention will be offered entirely online. The purpose of the intervention is: 1) to increase participants' mindfulness, and 2) to encourage participants to change their beliefs about the disability associated with stroke to improve their psychological state. Mindfulness refers to the act of being aware: aware of thoughts, aware of emotions, aware of physical sensations, aware of others. The intervention consists of educational texts, daily exercises, audio recordings and videos. Five different topics related to mindfulness will be introduced throughout the intervention.
