Despite encouraging findings concerning the application of MBIs in psychosis, some clinicians are of the view that mindfulness (and/or meditation) can trigger an increase in psychotic symptoms and that it is thus an inappropriate treatment for this target group. The present chapter focuses on these issues and undertakes a timely appraisal of the role of MBIs in the treatment of psychosis. We evaluate key quantitative and qualitative research findings and make recommendations relating to future research directions and the effective use of mindfulness in psychosis treatment settings.
