Abstract

Objectives

The Embodied and Embedded Mindfulness and Compassion Framework (EEMCF) was recently developed. It draws upon the theory of embodiment and particularly the seminal contributions of Varela and colleagues, and the notion that both mindfulness and compassion are embedded in the surrounding context/environment. This paper aims to briefly present the components of the EEMCF and review and discuss various intervention strategies that can cultivate the different components of the framework.

Method

The components of the framework are briefly presented. Various intervention strategies and practices are reviewed and discussed to target the diverse components and subcomponents of the proposed framework. These practices are designed to cultivate the sets of skills or abilities pertinent to developing embodied (intrapersonal) mindfulness, interpersonal mindfulness, compassion for self, compassion for other humans, compassion for animals, and connection with nature. Additionally, when available, evidence of the effectiveness of these practices is presented and discussed, along with clinical guidelines for integrating these interventions into existing psychological treatment modalities.

Results

Proposed practices encompass a wide range of individual, interpersonal, and environmental elements. These practices include among others mindful breathing and body scans, active listening and compassionate imagery, and nature visualization. Moreover, these practices have the potential to be integrated into a comprehensive Embodied and Embedded Mindfulness and Compassion Treatment (EEMCT), with potential social and clinical benefits.

Conclusions

This paper marks the initial step towards implementing the proposed framework (EEMCF) into a potential clinical treatment. Furthermore, it discusses implications and outlines future directions for research and clinical applications.
