It has been suggested that mindfulness is a predictive factor in self-reported perceived stress.

Background: Fatigue is one of the most common symptoms of neurological conditions. Although the literature suggests different approaches to treatment of this pervasive symptom, there is not a single, agreed comprehensive and well-supported approach to manage fatigue. There is strong evidence (Mathiowetz, Finlayson, Matuska, Chen, & Luo, 2005; Mathiowetz, Matuska, Finlayson, Luo, & Chen, 2007) that the face-to-face fatigue self-management program designed by Packer et al (1995) is effective in improving fatigue in people with MS.
