Sažetak
Mindfulness is the practise of being attentive, i.e., being aware of what is going on in the present moment in our mind, body, and external environment with an attitude of acceptance, non-judgment, kindness, and openness. Several studies in the fields of medicine, psychology, neuroscience, and other related disciplines have suggested that the use of mindfulness programmes and techniques can have numerous benefits for various user groups such as inducing psychophysical homeostasis, improving emotional self-regulation, and maintaining successful social relationships. Based on these findings, the aim of this study was to review and analyse the results of previous research on the possibilities and effectiveness of using mindfulness in the field of education and rehabilitation in relation to the following user groups: 1) children with developmental disorders/people with disabilities, 2) parents, and 3) professionals of various disciplines involved in the process of education and rehabilitation. The results of recent research that was included in our literature review indicate the positive effects of mindfulness on physical, psycho-emotional, and social dimensions based on changes in neurological and endocrinological status, as well as autonomic nervous system activities. Changes were also reflected in self-experience, quality of interpersonal relationships, levels of perceived stress, as well as the techniques and coping strategies used to deal with adverse life situations. In addition, the need for further scientific and applied research was identified, which
can contribute to facilitating the effective use of mindfulness in the field of education and rehabilitation.
