与种族主义有关的压力与巨大的心理健康成本有关，因此有必要制定应对战略，以减轻负面后果。基于正念和有价值生活（MVL）的策略可能在解决种族主义相关压力对有色人种（POC）的负面影响方面具有独特的优势，通过减少内化信息，同时增加自我同情，应对灵活性和参与基于价值观的行动。至关重要的是，临床医生应用或推荐MVL策略，以POC应对种族主义相关的压力了解种族主义的复杂性，并考虑到这种复杂性，MVL可能需要如何调整才能有效。本文提供了指导临床医生寻求使用MVL策略与客户端的颜色，以科普种族主义相关的压力。我们提供了一个简短的背景文献综述种族主义的性质，种族主义相关的压力对心理健康的影响POC，和选择的模式，应对种族主义相关的压力。我们还回顾了现有的正念文献与应对种族主义相关的压力，同时提供了考虑适应MVL策略，特别是应对种族主义相关的压力。总而言之，研究指出，MVL战略的承诺，作为应对种族主义相关的压力有益的干预措施，虽然更多的研究是必要的。我们建议临床医生考虑所概述的建议，以文化响应，验证的方式向客户提供MVL策略。需要进一步的研究，以评估MVL战略和心理健康之间的联系，并评估是否歧视特定的适应有利于减轻种族主义相关的压力的心理健康的影响。
Racism-related stress is associated with significant mental health costs, necessitating the development of coping strategies to mitigate the negative sequelae. Mindfulness and valued living (MVL)–based strategies may be uniquely beneficial in addressing the negative effects of racism-related stress for people of color (POC) by decreasing internalized messages, while increasing self-compassion, coping flexibility, and engagement in values-based actions. It is imperative that clinicians applying or recommending MVL strategies to POC for coping with racism-related stress understand the complex nature of racism and, given that complexity, consider how MVL may need to be adapted to be effective. This paper offers guidance to clinicians seeking to use MVL strategies with clients of color to cope with racism-related stress. We provide a brief contextual literature review on the nature of racism, mental health impacts of racism-related stress for POC, and selected models of coping with racism-related stress. We also review existing mindfulness literature in relation to coping with racism-related stress, while offering considerations for adapting MVL strategies specifically for coping with racism-related stress. Altogether, the research points to the promise of MVL strategies as beneficial interventions for coping with racism-related stress, although more research is warranted. We recommend that clinicians consider the suggestions outlined to present MVL strategies to clients in culturally responsive, validating ways. Further research is needed to evaluate links between MVL strategies and mental health, and to evaluate whether discrimination-specific adaptations are beneficial in mitigating the mental health impacts of racism-related stress.
