The main objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between mindfulness and burnout syndrome among higher education faculty during the year 2024. A quantitative, correlational, descriptive, and cross-sectional methodology was used. The sample consisted of 180 faculty members, and data were collected using Likert-scale questionnaires. The results revealed a significant relationship between mindfulness and burnout syndrome, with a correlation coefficient of 0.206, indicating a favorable but low-intensity association between the two variables. In conclusion, a positive, albeit weak, relationship was determined between mindfulness and burnout syndrome among the faculty members evaluated.
