摘要：AbstractThis research has been centered on examining the associations between stress and cortisol blood level, as well as on investigating the effects of a cognitive-behavioral therapy intervention with mindfulness elements on diminishing the stress and cortisol levels within a sample of 30 young adults (Mage=27.9; SD=5.37). The subjects completed the Perceived Stress Scale at the beginning of the therapy and after finalizing it. The blood samples have been collected before the intervention program and after a three months’ time at its ending. The values obtained post the cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness intervention reflected diminished levels of stress and cortisol.
