Alzheimer's disease is a progressive brain disorder that involves the loss of the ability to live independently, functional capacity and safety. Thus, patients often suffer neuropsychiatric disorders and need help from another person to live every day. Due to the burden of caregiving, the main caregivers can have anxiety and depression symptoms. With this scenario, we will conduct this randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate the effect of mindfulness program for caregiver's vs control group on: 1) neuropsychiatric disorders, cognitive function, daily activity living and quality of life in Alzheimer patients; 2) anxiety and depression symptoms, burden of caregiving, quality of life, psychological well-being, occupational balance, executive function and self-compassion in their caregivers.
