The present study attempted to test the benefits of a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program in Portuguese institutionalized elderly people, as a way to improve life satisfaction and reduce psychopathology. The sample included 12 institutionalized elderly people, with ages between 65 and 91 (M = 82.58 years; SD = 7.87), that filled several selfreport questionnaires and were assessed with Mini Mental State Examination. Participants attended to an adapted Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction program (KabatZinn,1994), with 48 sessions (16 weeks) and Participants were evaluated before and after the intervention.
