Hypertension is one of the most common noninfectious diseases that affects the elderly. Hypertension is also a leading cause of serious complications such as stroke, heart failure, and kidney disease. Non-pharmacological approaches such as the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) method have been proven effective in lowering blood pressure by reducing stress and increasing self-awareness. This study aims to determine the effect of relaxation therapy with the MBSR method on reducing blood pressure among elderly patients with hypertension. This research employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design. The design used was a pre-test post-test design. The sample consisted of 30 elderly selected using purposive sampling based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The study was conducted from April 14th to June 3rd, 2025. The intervention given was an MBSR treatment program for two months, eight sessions, including mindfulness meditation, breathing exercises, and relaxation techniques. Blood pressure measurements were taken before and after the intervention. The data were analyzed using the paired t-test. The results showed a significant decrease in systolic blood pressure of P< 0.000 and diastolic blood pressure with P < 0.011 after intervention. The average reduction in systolic blood pressure was 5.13 mmHg, and in diastolic blood pressure was 4.63 mmHg. These findings indicate that the MBSR therapy is effective in helping elderly individuals manage hypertension through stress reduction and enhanced self-awareness

Aswin, Zeus Marullah, Frinaldi, Aldri, Dasman Lanin, Rembrandt, Mhd. Ridha, Iqrima Basri
Abstract: Studi ini meneliti permasalahan polusi udara yang ditimbulkan oleh penggunaan generator set (genset) di gedung perkantoran di Jakarta, yang menjadi salah satu sumber emisi stasioner yang sering terabaikan di kawasan perkotaan&#8230; otaan padat penduduk. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dampak lingkungan dari emisi genset, meninjau regulasi pemerintah terkait pengendalian emisi, serta mengidentifikasi solusi teknis dan alternatif energi yang lebih ramah lingkungan. Metode penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif berbasis tinjauan pustaka komprehensif terhadap hasil-hasil studi sebelumnya. Hasil sintesis literatur menunjukkan bahwa kerangka regulasi di Indonesia masih terbatas pada penetapan standar emisi tanpa mekanisme pemantauan dan penegakan yang efektif. Selain itu, penerapan teknologi seperti Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF), Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), penggunaan bahan bakar rendah sulfur, serta pemanfaatan biodiesel terbukti efektif dalam menekan emisi polutan. Kajian ini menyoroti perlunya kebijakan terpadu yang mengintegrasikan regulasi, teknologi bersih, dan kesadaran lingkungan dalam pengelolaan energi perkotaan berkelanjutan.
