Abstract. Anxiety is one of the psychological problems that affect the condition of cancer patients. This study aims to determine the effect of Brief Mindfulness Meditation (BMM) in reducing anxiety in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy treatment. This study uses a quasi-experimental design with a pre-posttest design with a control group. The instrument used is STAI (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory). The BMM intervention was given for 25 minutes three times during the chemotherapy process. The results showed that there was a significant change in anxiety scores (state & trait) in the treatment group after being given the BMM intervention (p < .005). This shows that the BMM intervention affects reducing anxiety in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Keywords: Anxiety, Cancer Patient, Chemotherapy, Brief Mindfulness Meditation, Abstrak.
