Introdução: Transtornos mentais afetam uma em cada oito pessoas no mundo e causam alterações significativas no pensamento, na regulação emocional e no comportamento. Objetivo: Mapear o efeito da intervenção de mindfulness na redução dos níveis de estresse, ansiedade e depressão em indivíduos encarcerados. Materiais e Métodos: Foi utilizado o modelo metodológico de cinco etapas de Arksey e O'Malley. Uma busca sistemática foi realizada nas bases de dados PubMed, SAGE Journals, Science, Springer e Web of Science. Resultados: Um total de 10 artigos foram incluídos, analisando 10 intervenções diferentes. Em relação à distribuição por gênero, a maioria dos estudos focou em populações masculinas, com exceção de três estudos que avaliaram mulheres e um que incluiu uma amostra mista. Seis das sete intervenções revisadas mostraram uma diminuição significativa em pelo menos uma dessas variáveis, com a intervenção Caminho da Liberdade se destacando. Discussão: O programa Caminho da Liberdade adaptado se destacou como o mais eficaz na redução do estresse, da ansiedade e da depressão. Este resultado sugere que seu impacto vai além das práticas tradicionais de mindfulness, integrando componentes-chave da regulação emocional de forma mais estruturada. Conclusão: Intervenções baseadas em mindfulness têm se mostrado eficazes na redução do estresse, da ansiedade e da depressão em indivíduos encarcerados. No entanto, seu impacto varia dependendo da abordagem metodológica, da duração do programa e dos componentes incorporados.
