Abstract
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has emphasised the importance of online therapeutic interventions for people experiencing mental health issues. Online mindfulness-based interventions can be a flexible and accessible way for people to receive support. They have been shown to reduce symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression in diverse clinical populations. However, they can produce side effects and they are not suitable for everyone. The aim of this article is to inform mental health nurses and nursing students about the benefits and limitations of online mindfulness-based interventions for people experiencing mental health issues
