It is also worth noting that a study out of Georgetown University Medical Center was published in the peer-reviewed Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA Psychiatry, 2022) showing that mindfulness-based stress reduction was a well-tolerated treatment option with comparable (non-inferior) effectiveness to a first-line medication for patients with anxiety disorders.
