In the latest three decades, many kinds of mindfulness-based interventions have been developed within the fields of medicine, healthcare and psychotherapy in the west. Recently, due to the increasing researches of the benefits of mindfulness, educators begin to integrate mindfulness training into various levels of education, including higher education and K-12 education.
