- Q: What is a mindfulness-based training program?
- A: Mindfulness-based training programs are designed to teach individuals how to cultivate mindfulness, which is defined as paying attention to present-moment experiences with an attitude of curiosity and non-judgment. Mindfulness-based training programs often involve a combination of didactic teaching, experiential exercises, and homework assignments, and they may incorporate various mindfulness practices such as meditation, yoga, and mindful movement. These programs are typically facilitated by trained instructors and may be delivered in group or individual formats.
Mindfulness-based training programs have been shown to have a number of benefits, including reducing stress, improving emotional regulation, and increasing well-being. They are often used in the fields of mental health, education, and workplace settings to promote physical and mental health, improve performance and productivity, and enhance overall quality of life.

- QUOTE: Why are older adults reluctant to adopt new technology, such as the Internet, given its potential to improve the quality of their lives? We review evidence indicating that attitudes and abilities are among the most powerful predictors of technology use. We conclude that normative age-related changes in ability must be taken into account when designing products and training programs for aging adults, and we discuss new tools to support designers. The most promising emerging technologies likely lie in training cognitive abilities and augmenting or substituting for impaired abilities.
