Stress is Negatively Correlated with Mindfulness in Adults

Stress can be defined as any type of change that causes physical, emotional, or psychological strain. Stress is your body’s response to anything that requires attention or action. Mindfulness is the basic human ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we’re doing, and not overly reactive or overwhelmed by what’s going on around us. Main objectives of this study are, to determine the relationship between mindfulness and stress in adults, to understand how we can change our life (stressful life) and make it better, to assess the relationship between mindfulness and Stress. Here we have used correlation method. The sample I have taken for the research is adults, the period of human development in which full physical growth and maturity have been achieved. In this study we are going to measure stress according to Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) – Sheldon Cohen, and mindfulness according to Mindfulness Attention Awareness scale (MASS). There is a Negative correlation seen in this study but in the first attempt of Analysis as I didn’t clear the outliers it made it more difficult for the analysis to be valid.
