Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is identified by a decrease in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR <60 mL/min/1.73) over a period of more than three months. Patients undergoing hemodialysis often experience anxiety due to the intense therapy routine and lifestyle limitations. This condition requires effective anxiety management. This study analyzes the effect of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) on anxiety levels in hemodialysis patients. The research design used was quantitative with a one-group pre-test post-test approach to evaluate the effectiveness of MBSR. Data were collected using the GAD-7 questionnaire . The research sample used purposive sampling of 88 respondents, analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. The findings showed that 68 respondents experienced a decrease in anxiety, 0 respondents experienced an increase, and 1 respondent experienced a decrease in anxiety. 20 respondents ( ties ) which did not experience an increase or decrease in anxiety levels. The p-value sign value = 0.000 or p < 0.05, the conclusion is 0.000 < α (0.05) then Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted which means there is an effect of MBSR therapy on the anxiety levels of hemodialysis patients. The conclusion obtained is that MBSR has an influence on the anxiety level of hemodialysis patients.
