Non-drug methods mainly used in the management of postmenopausal symptoms are sports, avoiding bad habits, paying attention to diet and increasing fluid intake, wearing comfortable clothes. In addition, there are many supportive methods such as stress reduction meditation practices, garden therapies, breathing and physical exercise practices, aromatherapy. Among the most frequently used coping methods of women experiencing menopausal symptoms such as irritability and anxiety/anxiety, it was found that 'paying attention to different things (housework, cleaning, cooking, handicrafts, etc.)' was among the most frequently used coping methods. In this direction, it is thought that occupational practice may have positive effects on menopausal symptoms in women. Engagement practices are one of the methods widely used in recent years to cope with anxiety, depression and stress.\n\nOur study aimed to measure the effectiveness of mindfulness-based practices on menopausal symptoms and psychological well-being in menopausal women by blending mindfulness-based practices and busyness practices, and in this sense, it is anticipated that it will make a significant contribution to the literature.\n\nObjective: This study will be conducted to determine the effect of mindfulness-based and occupational practices on psychological well-being and menopausal symptoms in menopausal women.\n\nMaterials and Methods: The research will be conducted as a randomised controlled experimental study in a four-group, parallel, pretest-posttest design. The research is planned to be conducted between December 2024 and December 2025. The population of the study consists of women in menopause who applied to the ASM in the centre of Kars between December 2024 and December 2025.
