Abstract

In this chapter, we will describe the most common mental health problems for elders and adaptations to mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) to provide relief. We will also describe why caregivers are an integral component of mental health for elders, the common emotional suffering and mental health problems experienced by family and professional caregivers, and how MBIs can be best offered to this population.
