“Holding Space”: A Phenomenological Exploration of Mindfulness-Based Practice With Veterans Who Have Experienced Trauma
2023
Overview
The current phenomenological study examined the lived experiences of Veterans who completed a 4-month mindfulness program. One-on-one interviews were conducted with 12 Veterans using a Socratic method of interviewing, which yielded rich contextual narratives. Analysis was guided by a hermeneutic process to disclose concealed meanings. Findings demonstrate how holding space allowed deep healing and are presented under two distinct themes: It's a We Thing! encompasses what being in a community with nonjudgmental others afforded participants; and Quiet Your Mind, Quiet Yourself, Your Body is related to how practices of mindfulness taught participants to cope with daily challenges. Nurses working with Veterans may use mindfulness and peer support interventions to help transform trauma into profound healing and help Veterans find new meaning in life.
