CRD SUMMARY: The authors concluded that, compared with control conditions, mindfulness-based interventions resulted in significantly lower levels of primary symptom severity in people with a current episode of depression, but suggested that these interventions should not be a first-line therapy for primary anxiety disorder. Although the review was largely well-conducted, lack of review process reporting means that the overall reliability is unclear.
