| Abstract | This research delves into the intricate tapestry of mindfulness practices within the cultural milieu of Thai society. Mindfulness, deeply rooted in Buddhist traditions, has gained increasing global attention for its potential benefits in various aspects ofwell-being. However, the application and understanding of mindfulness are profoundly influenced by cultural contexts, presenting unique manifestations and interpretations across different societies. Through a comprehensive review of literature and qualitative analysis, this study explores the nuanced landscape of mindfulness practices in Thailand, elucidating how cultural, religious, and societal factors shape its expression and adoption. This study employs a qualitative research approach to conduct a comprehensive exploration of mindfulness practices within the Thai society context. Qualitative methods are particularly suited for capturing the complexities of cultural phenomena and societal perceptions, allowing for in-depth exploration and interpretation of subjective experiences. The result found that mindfulness, deeply rooted in Buddhist traditions, has gained increasing global attention for its potential benefits in various aspects of well-being. However, the application and understanding of mindfulness are profoundly influenced by cultural contexts, presenting unique manifestations and interpretations across different societies. By examining historical roots, contemporary applications, and societal perceptions, this research aims to provide insights into the dynamic interplay between mindfulness and Thai cultural ethos, offering implications for the integration of mindfulness-based interventions tailored to the Thai context. Understanding mindfulness within its cultural framework not only enriches the discourse on contemplative practices but also fosters culturally sensitive approaches to well-being promotion in diverse global contexts. |
