Abstract

Mindfulness and self-compassion are current topics in the scientific area and have benefits evidenced by their practices. This article aimed to carry out na integrative literature review to understand how deaf or hard of hearing people are approached by the themes of mindfulness and self-compassion in scientific findings. The databases SciELO.org, PsycINFO (APA), Scopus (Elsevier), PUBMED, Web of Science, Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) and Periodical CAPES were used to search for scientific studies on the topics February 2022. Additionally, inclusion and exclusion criteria were adopted for the choice of material and, after the selection and eligibility steps, following the PRISMA protocol, three studies were selected. The results indicated adjustments in the preparation and delivery of proposals in mindfulness and the effects of the intervention on the mental health of the deaf population. In addition, the research found did not address the topic of self-compassion. It is suggested that further research can discuss the issues in question with deaf or hard of hearing people.
