Exploring Mindfulness and Mindfulness with Self-Compassion-Centered Interventions to Assist Weight Loss: Theoretical Considerations and Preliminary Results of a Randomized Pilot Study
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored whether developing mindfulness and self-compassion through meditation supports weight loss and maintenance, and they found that developing both of them appears more promising for weight loss than developing mindfulness alone or simply dieting.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Role of Negative Cognition, Intolerance of Uncertainty, Mindfulness, and Self-Compassion in Weight Regulation Among Male Army Recruits
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined weight gain in a stressful environment (i.e., following compulsory enrollment in the Greek army) and found that higher levels of mindfulness and self-compassion would relate negatively to weight gain, whilst negative automatic thoughts and intolerance of uncertainty would positively relate to the weight gain.
