Abstract Mind-body intervention has been well established as an alternative psychosocial intervention for managing depression. Mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) and health qigong (HQ) are two common forms of mind-body intervention which share the common focus on breathing. However, they may represent two distinct approaches with different mechanisms. MBI focuses more on mind-based practices whereas HQ may focus predominantly on body-based movement practices. Thus, a large research gap in comparing the unique therapeutic effects of mind-based and movement-based health practices on alleviating depression among older people is worthy of further investigation. A total of 45 community-dwelling Chinese older adults aged 60 or above with symptoms of clinical depression were recruited. They were randomly assigned to three different groups, including an MBI group, a HQ group, and a waitlist control (WLC) group. Comparisons were made before and after 8-week interventions. Regarding the primary outcome, the effect sizes between the MBI and WLC groups, as well as between the HQ and WLC groups, were reasonably large (Hedges’ g = 1.338 and 0.725, respectively), yet the effect size between the MBI and HQ groups was moderate (Hedges’ g = 0.325). Specifically, participants in the MBI group showed more improvements on perceived stress, self-efficacy, and mental health, whereas participants in the HQ group showed relatively better performance regarding interoception and physical mobility. Findings from this research demonstrate the unique therapeutic effects of mind-based and movement-based interventions on alleviating depression among older people. The application of two distinct forms of mind-body intervention in a Chinese context is discussed.

Purpose: To contribute to the treatment fidelity literature by providing real-world examples and suggestion for future research and potential clinical application, this article reports on implementation, assessment, and evaluation of treatment fidelity in mind–body self-care approaches in at-risk women. Method: Aligning with best practices, treatment fidelity was integrated into three randomized clinical trials. The first examined the effects of a tai chi intervention designed to decrease cardiometabolic risk factors in women; the second examined the effects of a tailored guided imagery intervention on pregnancy outcomes in African American women; and the third explored effects of a mindful physical activity intervention (yoga) on psychological outcomes in women with moderate to severe depressive symptoms. Findings: Each of the studies successfully designed, implemented, and evaluated strategies to address recommended treatment fidelity components. These strategies provided qualitative and quantitative data that informed intervention refinement, directions for future research, and application in clinical practice. Conclusions: The treatment fidelity framework used here is based on best practices and was a feasible and reliable approach for ensuring and reporting on treatment fidelity, which is contributing to future research to foster translation of potentially effective mind–body self-care approaches into practice.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a structured mind-body intervention in reducing perceived stress and enhancing body awareness among adults. Methods and Materials: The study used a randomized controlled trial design with 30 adult participants from Pakistan, randomly assigned to either an intervention group (n = 15) or a control group (n = 15). The intervention group received nine weekly sessions of a structured mind-body program incorporating mindfulness practices, breathwork, progressive muscle relaxation, and mindful movement, while the control group received no psychological training during this period. Both groups completed assessments at three time points: pre-test, post-test, and three-month follow-up. Perceived stress was measured using the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), and body awareness was assessed using the Body Awareness Questionnaire (BAQ). Data were analyzed using repeated measures ANOVA with Bonferroni post-hoc tests in SPSS-27. Findings: The intervention group showed a significant reduction in perceived stress from pre-test (M = 28.47, SD = 3.92) to post-test (M = 17.26, SD = 4.21), which was sustained at follow-up (M = 18.02, SD = 4.33), while the control group showed no meaningful change. Similarly, body awareness scores in the intervention group increased significantly from pre-test (M = 62.13, SD = 6.48) to post-test (M = 77.94, SD = 5.87) and remained elevated at follow-up (M = 76.80, SD = 6.03), with no substantial changes in the control group. Repeated measures ANOVA revealed significant time, group, and interaction effects (p < .001), with large effect sizes. Bonferroni post-hoc analysis confirmed the stability of changes from post-test to follow-up. Conclusion: The findings suggest that mind-body interventions are effective in reducing stress and increasing body awareness, with sustained effects over a three-month period, making them a promising approach for psychological and somatic well-being in general adult populations.

Background Despite current rehabilitation programs, long-term engagement in physical activity remains a significant challenge for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and heart failure (HF). Novel strategies to promote physical activity in these populations are greatly needed. Emerging literature on the benefits of both mind–body interventions and web-based interventions provide the rationale for the development of the Mindful Steps intervention for increasing walking behavior. Objective This study aims to develop a novel multimodal mind–body exercise intervention through adaptation of an existing web-based physical activity intervention and incorporation of mind–body exercise, and to pilot test the delivery of the new intervention, Mindful Steps, in a randomized controlled feasibility trial in older adults with COPD and/or HF. Methods In phase 1, guided by a theoretical conceptual model and review of the literature on facilitators and barriers of physical activity in COPD and HF, we convened an expert panel of researchers, mind–body practitioners, and clinicians to inform development of the novel, multimodal intervention. In phase 2, we are conducting a pilot randomized controlled feasibility trial of the Mindful Steps intervention that includes in-person mind–body exercise classes, an educational website, online mind–body videos, and a pedometer with step-count feedback and goals to increase walking behavior in patients with COPD and/or HF. Outcomes include feasibility measures as well as patient-centered measures. Results The study is currently ongoing. Phase 1 intervention development was completed in March 2019, and phase 2 data collection began in April 2019. Conclusions Through the integration of components from a web-based physical activity intervention and mind–body exercise, we created a novel, multimodal program to impact long-term physical activity engagement for individuals with COPD and HF. This developmental work and pilot study will provide valuable information needed to design a future clinical trial assessing efficacy of this multimodal approach.

OBJECTIVE: As insomnia is highly prevalent, and side effects of medication are well-known, mind-body interventions are increasingly being sought. The objective of this study is to present a narrative review regarding the effects of mind-body interventions for the treatment of insomnia. METHOD: A PubMed search was conducted including only randomized, controlled trials in which the main objective was to treat insomnia. DISCUSSION: Twelve studies were selected. In three of the studies, objective parameters (polysomnography) were analyzed. Mind-body interventions were able to improve sleep efficiency and total sleep time. Most can ameliorate sleep quality; some can reduce the use of hypnotic drugs in those who are dependent on these drugs. CONCLUSION: According to the studies we selected, self-reported sleep was improved by all mind-body treatments, among them yoga, relaxation, Tai Chi Chih and music. Cognitive behavioral therapy seems to be the most effective mind-body intervention. Cognitive behavioral therapy was the only intervention that showed better results than medication. However, considering that only five of the twelve studies chosen reached a score of 3 in the Jadad scale, new studies with a higher methodological quality have to be conducted especially in mind-body interventions that belong to the complementary or alternative medicine field.

ABSTRACTBackground:Mind-body interventions have been associated with a range of positive outcomes in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The aim of the present study was to review the impact of different non-pharmacological programs based on mind-body intervention for older adults with MCI.Methods:A comprehensive search method as required by the Cochrane Collaboration has been performed through the following databases: Google Scholar, Science Direct, PubMed, PsycINFO, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINHAL, Cochrane, Ebsco. We included the studies that evaluated the impact of mind-body interventions such as mindfulness or meditation, yoga, Tai Chi and Qigong on cognitive function and everyday functionality of non-hospitalized adults aged 55 years or over with MCI.Results:Nine studies met the inclusion criteria. Results indicated that mind-body interventions improved cognitive function, everyday activities functioning, and mindfulness, as well as resulting in a moderate reduction in fall risk, depression and stress and lower risk of dementia at one year.Conclusion:Several mind-body interventions focused broadly on mindfulness, yoga and Tai Chi training have been studied. This review shows that mind-body interventions improved cognitive function and everyday activities functioning, memory, resilience and mindfulness in older adults with MCI. However, the conclusions faced limitations, such as small sample size, heterogeneity of outcome measures, lack of an active control group and absence of long-term follow up. Further high-quality evidence is needed in order to determine whether mind-body interventions are cost-effective for improving cognitive decline in older adults with MCI and for delaying the rapid progression from MCI to Alzheimer or other types of dementia.

The pandemic highlighted the need for alternative, more accessible access to mental health interventions that can be readily administered remotely. The purpose of this pre-post-interventional study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a virtual mind-body medicine training course on stress, anxiety, and depression levels. University employees and members of the Las Vegas community were recruited via self-selection and snowball sampling and subjected to online mind-body practice sessions in December of 2020. Stress, anxiety, depression, and quality of life were assessed pre- and post-intervention using standardized psychometric valid tools. The paired t-test and related samples marginal homogeneity tests were used for continuous and categorical outcomes, respectively. Depression and stress scores were significantly decreased (p < 0.001). Mean scores of professional quality of life improved post-intervention compared to pre-intervention (p = 0.03). A significantly larger proportion of participants reported no depression or stress post-intervention compared with pre-intervention (p < 0.001, p = 0.003, respectively.) This study suggests that virtual mind-body practices had a pronounced impact on stress and depression levels during the pandemic. These findings support virtual, online-guided mind-body medicine training as an effective intervention that can be administered virtually to reduce stress and depression symptoms.

Through the Celtic Knot Project, students learned that even the simple act of providing ice water to a patient addressed the mind, body, and spirit. It facilitated the students’ understanding of the holistic nature of nursing, the application of nursing interventions to achieve wellness, and the notion that each intervention can affect mind, body, and spirit collectively—that the whole is indeed more than the sum of its parts.

Abstract Research is limited on the use of technology to help individuals who have a mismatch between physiological fall risk (Body) and perceived fall risk (Mind) and are unable to access traditional fall interventions. We examined the feasibility and acceptability of a technology-based body-mind intervention in low-income older adults during the COVID-19 pandemic and explored barriers to access and adopting the technology. Data were collected using a survey, balance test, accelerometer-based physical activity (PA), and semi-structured interviews with twenty participants who engaged in an 8-week intervention at a low-income setting in Florida. We found that: 1) the technology-based intervention is feasible, 2) participants tend to accept technology to alter their perceptions of fall risk and balance capacity, 3) tailored activities to each component are not a one-size-fits-all approach. There were no statistically significant changes in sedentary time, light PA, and moderate to vigorous PA between pre and post-intervention.

Abstract Physical activity reduces cancer risk, yet African American adults remain insufficiently active, contributing to cancer health disparities. Harmony & Health (HH) was developed as a culturally adapted mind-body intervention to promote physical activity, psychosocial well-being, and quality of life among a church-based sample of overweight/obese, insufficiently active African American adults. Men and women were recruited to the study through an existing church partnership. Eligible participants (N = 50) were randomized to a movement-based mind-body intervention (n = 26) or waitlist control (n = 24). Participants in the intervention attended 16 mind-body sessions over 8 weeks and completed a physical assessment, questionnaires on moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and psychosocial factors, and accelerometry at baseline (T1), post-intervention (T2), and 6 week follow-up (T3). Eighty percent of participants (94% women, M age = 49.7 ± 9.4 years, M body mass index = 32.8 ± 5.2 kg/m2) completed the study, and 61.5% of intervention participants attended ≥10 mind-body sessions. Participants self-reported doing 78.8 ± 102.9 (median = 40.7, range: 0–470.7) min/day of MVPA and did 27.1 ± 20.7 (median = 22.0, range: 0–100.5) min/day of accelerometer-measured MVPA at baseline. Trends suggest that mind-body participants self-reported greater improvements in physical activity and psychosocial well-being from baseline to post-intervention than waitlist control participants. HH is feasible and acceptable among African American adults. Trends suggest that the mind-body intervention led to improvements in physical activity and psychosocial outcomes. This study extends the literature on the use of mind-body practices to promote physical and psychological health and reduce cancer disparities in African American adults.

Expectancy, arguably the prime component of the placebo effect, has been shown to significantly modify the effects of many treatments. Furthermore, various forms of mind-body interventions have demonstrated effective improvements in outcomes. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between pretreatment expectations and symptom reduction in a secondary analysis of 3 mind-body intervention programs. An adjusted correlation and regression analysis compared data from a 6-question expectancy questionnaire to a self-reported clinical impression of change score. Only 1 of the 6 expectancy questions in 1 of the 3 studies reached significance ( B = 0.087; P = .025). The combined data from all 3 studies did not reveal significant expectancy effects. The positive effects of mindfulness meditation appear to be independent of an expectancy effect.

Abstract Individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) may have limited access to intervention programs that support their mental and physical health. The COVID-19 pandemic has put them at an even greater risk of not having access to such programs. While there is currently no cure, there is growing evidence that intervention programs may attenuate the progression from MCI to dementia, particularly those which 1) have potential to reduce the level of cardiovascular risk factors, 2) employ cognitively stimulating activities, and 3) create opportunities for social interaction (Petersen, Lopez, Armstrong et al., 2018; Wayne, Yeh, & Mehta, 2018; Mortimer, Ding, Borenstein et al., 2012). Many mind-body interventions, such as tai chi, yoga, and mindfulness classes, contain these three elements and have been shown to benefit individuals diagnosed with MCI, including improving cognition (e.g., Wells, Kerr, Wolkin, et al. 2013; Yang, 2016). Tele-technology (i.e., technology that supports communication between people who are not co-located) can aid in overcoming the logistical barriers by bringing instructors and interventions to these individuals to help them stay engaged and attend activities more frequently from the comfort and convenience of their home. We will present recent findings from a user study with 8 stakeholders (4 subject matter experts, 2 individuals with MCI, 2 care partners) to assess barriers and facilitators to using tele-technology to bring instruction of mind-body interventions to individuals diagnosed with MCI. This poster will present guidelines for delivering such interventions based on our findings from the user study, including safety and training protocols.

This review summarizes the effectiveness of scalable mind-body internet and mobile-based interventions (IMIs) on depression and anxiety symptoms in adults living with chronic physical conditions. Six databases (MEDLINE, PsycINFO, SCOPUS, EMBASE, CINAHL, and CENTRAL) were searched for randomized controlled trials published from database inception to March 2023. Mind-body IMIs included cognitive behavioral therapy, breathwork, meditation, mindfulness, yoga or Tai-chi. To focus on interventions with a greater potential for scale, the intervention delivery needed to be online with no or limited facilitation by study personnel. The primary outcome was mean change scores for anxiety and depression (Hedges’ g). In subgroup analyses, random-effects models were used to calculate pooled effect size estimates based on personnel support level, intervention techniques, chronic physical condition, and survey type. Meta-regression was conducted on age and intervention length. Fifty-six studies met inclusion criteria (sample size 7691, mean age of participants 43 years, 58% female): 30% (n = 17) neurological conditions, 12% (n = 7) cardiovascular conditions, 11% cancer (n = 6), 43% other chronic physical conditions (n = 24), and 4% (n = 2) multiple chronic conditions. Mind-body IMIs demonstrated statistically significant pooled reductions in depression (SMD = -0.33 [-0.40, -0.26], p<0.001) and anxiety (SMD = -0.26 [-0.36, -0.17], p<0.001). Heterogeneity was moderate. Scalable mind-body IMIs hold promise as interventions for managing anxiety and depression symptoms in adults with chronic physical conditions without differences seen with age or intervention length. While modest, the effect sizes are comparable to those seen with pharmacological therapy. The field would benefit from detailed reporting of participant demographics including those related to technological proficiency, as well as further evaluation of non-CBT interventions. Registration: The study is registered with PROSPERO ID #CRD42022375606.

Background: Type 2 diabetes needs a better understanding of etiological factors and management strategies based on lifestyle and constitutional factors, given its high association rate with many cardiovascular, neurological disorders, and COVID-19 infection. Purpose: The present study was undertaken to investigate the effect of Diabetes-specific integrated Yoga lifestyle Protocol (DYP) on glycemic control and lipid profiles of diabetic adults. Along with the DYP intervention, the individuals residing in Chandigarh and Panchkula union territories in the northern part of India were assessed for Ayurveda-based body–mind constitutional type. Ayurveda describes body–mind constitution as “ prakriti,” which has been discussed from two angles, namely physiological and psychological as body and mind are correlated. Methods: Cluster sampling of waitlist control study subjects was used as the sampling method for the study. A total of 1,215 registered subjects (81 diabetic) responded in randomly selected clusters in Chandigarh and Panchkula. Ayurveda physicians did Ayurveda body–mind constitutional assessment called prakriti assessment (physiological body–mind constitution assessment) in 35 participants (23 diabetic, 12 prediabetic) as a part of the study. Results: A group of 50 subjects was randomly selected for yoga intervention out of 81 diabetes mellitus adults, and 31 subjects were enrolled as waitlist controls. A significant decrease in the glycosylated hemoglobin levels from 8.49 ± 1.94% to 7.97 ± 2.20% in the intervention group was noticed. The lipid profiles of the DYP intervention and control groups were monitored. Three-month follow-up results of lipid profile diagnostic tests in intervention and control groups showed a significant difference between the two groups ( P < 0.05). Most diabetic and prediabetic individuals were found to have pitta dosha ( pitta controls all heat, metabolism, and transformation in the mind and body) as dominant constitution type. Conclusion: The study results demonstrated significant positive effects of yoga in diabetic individuals. This study has indicated the evidence for the safety and efficacy of the validated DYP for community-level interventions to prevent maladies like brain damage and stroke.

Introduction Translational evidence for mind–body interventions in hand therapy is limited. This pilot study aimed to determine potential benefits of including a mindful body scan or sonographic biofeedback at the outset of a hand therapy session on key psychological states. Methods A randomized, repeated-measures, cross-over design was used to evaluate a mindful body scan and sonographic biofeedback at the outset of a hand therapy session. Measures of pain, anxiety, and stress (i.e. salivary cortisol) were obtained from 21 hand therapy patients at the start, after 20 min, and at the end of each of three 60-min treatments. Trends were examined, and mixed-effects regression compared effects across time within and across the sessions for each of the outcome measures. Results For all intervention types, anxiety and stress decreased across the treatment session ( p < 0.001); no statistically significant changes were noted in pain. Using either mind–body intervention before standard care resulted in a meaningful decrease and statistical trend toward improvement in stress. The use of a mindful body scan produced an immediate, statistically significant reduction in anxiety (β = − 0.14, p = 0.03), a lowered level that was maintained throughout the therapy session. Discussion These data provide preliminary support for integrating mind–body interventions as preparatory activities in hand therapy. Mindful body scans may prepare patients for therapeutic interventions by more quickly reducing anxiety, and the use of either intervention may reduce patient stress more than would occur during a standard care session. These effects should be evaluated in an adequately powered clinical trial.

Background: Orthopedic surgery can trigger anxiety that negatively impacts patient experience and recovery. Purpose: This pilot study investigated if a compassionate interaction combined with standardized mind–body techniques could reduce patient anxiety levels during the initial postoperative phase for patients undergoing a total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods: Participants were 36 postsurgical hospital inpatients guided through a 10-minute mind–body breathing and visualization intervention on post-op day zero (POD 0) and on post-op day one (POD 1). Quantitative data included before and after Visual Analogue Scale for Anxiety (VAS-A) reports, heart rate values, and pulse oximetry readings. Results: Significant decreases in VAS-A and heart rate values as well as increases in pulse oximetry values were demonstrated on both POD 0 and POD 1. Conclusion: These results indicate that a brief mind–body intervention can reduce reported anxiety levels and induce physiologic benefits for hospitalized patients post-TKA and suggest the possibility that such interventions could reduce anxiety in a broader patient population.

Objectives: Yoga is a systematic practice aimed at developing harmony in the body, mind, and environment. The practices entail low impact physical activity postures (âsanas), breathing techniques (prânâyâma),relaxation, and meditation. In Kundalinî-Yoga the meditation involves performing a formless contemplation at the pituitary and hypothalamus glands. The purposes of this study were to develop, pilot test, and evaluate changes in behavioral antecedents and behaviors through a Kundalinî-Yoga training program for adults in a Midwestern city. Design: The study utilized a pre-test post-test design. Setting: The intervention was implemented at a wellness club in a Midwestern city with a population of about 450,000. Subjects: A sample of 3l predominantly Caucasian volunteers with a mean age of 47 years completed the course. Intervention: A basic intervention of six weeks with six 75-minute weekly classes teaching âsanas, prânâyâma,relaxation, and meditation involving a formless contemplation at the pituitary and hypothalamus glands was implemented. Outcome measures: A psychometric scale was developed that measured perceived knowledge; outcome expectations (including values and value expectancies);self-efficacy for performing âsanas, relaxation, and meditation; and recollection of the frequency of these behaviors performed in the past week. Results: Statistically significant changes (p < 0.0001)were found in all the study variables. Conclusion: The intervention was successful in modifying Yoga-related behaviors. The approach and tools developed in this pilot test are useful for process and impact evaluation of Yoga training interventions. The efficacy of this intervention in influencing the outcomes of several disease recovery, behavior change, and health promotion programs needs to be analyzed in future studies.

There has been a recent increase in body-oriented interventions implemented in educational contexts. Body-oriented interventions are grounded on the body–mind relationship, involving body and movement awareness and expression. In this systematic review of the literature on body-oriented interventions implemented in preschool contexts, we review the scope and quality of the quantitative evidence of each type of body-oriented intervention regarding social-emotional competence. Seven databases were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-RCTs. Seven core body-oriented intervention programs were found (e.g., play, relaxation, and psychomotricity). Play programs were the most studied and appear to be the most effective to improve social-emotional competence. Nevertheless, the level of scientific evidence was compromised by the lack of studies with high methodological quality.

This systematic literature review explores the role of psychoneuroimmunology (PNI)-based mind-body interventions in improving wound healing within nursing practice. Wound healing is a complex, multifactorial process influenced not only by cellular and molecular factors but also by psychological and immune responses. Despite the growing body of evidence supporting the efficacy of mind-body practices such as guided imagery, hypnotherapy, and meditation in managing stress and modulating immune responses, there is limited integration of these interventions into clinical nursing practices. This review aims to bridge this gap by synthesizing studies published between 2020 and 2024 that examine the impact of these interventions on wound healing outcomes. The review follows the PRISMA protocol, analyzing data from 50 primary studies focusing on RCTs, systematic reviews, and quasi-experimental designs. The results show significant improvements in wound closure rates, pain reduction, and immune modulation (e.g., reduction in cortisol and pro-inflammatory cytokines) in patients who received mind-body interventions. The findings support the hypothesis that mind-body interventions, by addressing both psychological stress and immune function, enhance wound healing. The proposed framework for integrating PNI-based interventions into nursing practice could improve patient outcomes in chronic wound management. Future research should focus on long-term studies with larger sample sizes and standardized intervention protocols to further validate these findings.

Chronic inflammatory diseases are the most significant cause of death in the world and entail severe impairment to quality of life. The World Health Organization (WHO) ranks chronic inflammatory diseases as the greatest threat to human health and wellbeing. Inflammation is epicentral to many clinical conditions and symptoms, and it is anticipated that the health, economic, and mortality burdens associated with chronic inflammation will steadily increase in the United States over the next 30 years. An inflammatory model of disease premises that peripheral injury/trauma/toxins release signaling mediators that activate glial components of peripheral and central cellular circuitry which if prolonged causes toxification of the central nervous system, or neuroinflammation. This inflammatory process is associated with an array of systemic symptomatology affecting somatic, neurocognitive, and affective domains, that can often be misdiagnosed and/or ineffectively treated in the clinic. Centralized neuroinflammation determines a range of conditions and their clinical trajectories, from autoimmune diseases, cancers, cardiovascular diseases, chronic pain, to neurological and psychiatric disorders. It is coming to light that mind-body medicine, defined here as mindfulness- and yoga-based interventions, appear to modulate peripheral cell signaling involved with inflammatory response. Translational mechanism nor intervention specificity of this early data is currently clearly delineated, posing an exciting and highly beneficial frontier for further empirical exploration in the field of integrative mind-body medicine. Here we initiate an allostasis model of working mechanism that aims to inform methodological design and ensuing empirical perspectives.

Background: Migration is one of the major challenges of the 21st century with many refugees being victims of torture and experiencing war and the collapse of their society. Sweden, for example, received about 169,520 refugees during 2015 and 20–30% of them were estimated to suffer from mental illness. Nevertheless, research shows that about 66.40% of refugees never reveal their traumatic experiences to a doctor and a majority refuse psychiatric help. Hence, we need innovative methods to promote the physical, mental, and social health of refugees. Objective: We examined the effects of Anthropedia’s Well-Being Coaching (i.e., a biopsychosocial approach to coaching) and Well-Being Spa (i.e., modern version of age-old Spa interventions) on the personality and health of a sample of refugees living in Sweden. Methodology: Participants were recruited as part of a health and employment project in Blekinge, Sweden. A total of 70 Syrian refugees were randomly assigned to a six-month intervention comprising either Well-Being Coaching, or Well-Being Spa, or both (i.e., Mind–Body). The participants reported personality (temperament and character), well-being (positive and negative affect, life satisfaction, and harmony in life), and ill-being (defeat and entrapment, and anxiety and depression) at the beginning and at the end of the six-month intervention period. Results: Participants assigned to the Well-Being Coaching intervention showed increases in self-directedness (Cohen’s d = 0.84), cooperativeness (Cohen’s d = 0.36), positive affect (Cohen’s d = 0.43), and life satisfaction (Cohen’s d = 0.56), and decreases in both negative affect (Cohen’s d = 0.38) and defeat (Cohen’s d = 0.89). Participants assigned to the Well-Being Spa intervention showed decreases in harm avoidance (Cohen’s d = 0.55), reward dependence (Cohen’s d = 0.69), negative affect (Cohen’s d = 0.82), anxiety (Cohen’s d = 0.53), defeat (Cohen’s d = 0.34), and external entrapment (Cohen’s d = 0.42). Participants assigned to the Mind–Body intervention showed significant decreases in harm avoidance (Cohen’s d = 0.47), anxiety (Cohen’s d = 0.61), depression (Cohen’s d = 0.34), defeat (Cohen’s d = 0.56), external entrapment (Cohen’s d = 0.44), and internal entrapment (Cohen’s d = 0.79) and increases in persistence (Cohen’s d = 0.27), self-directedness (Cohen’s d = 0.28), cooperativeness (Cohen’s d = 0.43), self-transcendence (Cohen’s d = 0.51), positive affect (Cohen’s d = 0.42), and harmony in life (Cohen’s d = 0.36). Conclusions: The results of the present study suggest that Well-Being Coaching strengthens refugees’ character, while the Well-Being Spa treatments reduced participants’ tendency to worry and anxiety. Finally, the combination of these two interventions seems to promote the development of health-related traits, reduce ill-health, and stress, and increase well-being in a wider biopsychosocial perspective.

Abstract Older adults in continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs) may experience critical stressors related to biological and social aging. Few interventions have been established to assist residents with managing life stressors, daily functioning, and sense of community. We conducted an analysis of exit feedback from intervention participants in a randomized trial of group-based stress management skills training (SMART-Relaxation Response Resiliency Program [SMART-3RP]; 9 weekly sessions delivered by a community clinician) versus waitlist control for independent living residents at nine CCRCs across the United States (N=288; 8/2022-1/2023). SMART-3RP is an evidence-based mind-body resiliency program that integrates relaxation response training with cognitive-behavioral and positive psychology principles. Intervention participants (n=148) completed a post-intervention questionnaire including 3 categorical items and open-text fields to evaluate program helpfulness with managing life stressors, daily functioning, and sense of community. Responses were evaluated using descriptive statistics and qualitative content analysis. 131/148 (88.5%) intervention participants provided feedback (77% female, M age=81 years [range=66-93 years], 91.5% White non-Hispanic). Most endorsed that the program helped manage life stressors (82.4%) and daily functioning (77.9%); participants further identified benefits of learning or strengthening skills for practicing gratitude, relaxation, emotion regulation, mindful awareness, self-compassion, and cognitive restructuring. Over half (56.9%) felt the program enhanced sense of community; residents reflected the value of connecting with group leaders and/or other group members and increasing motivation to engage in other community social and physical activities. Findings support that community residents valued participation in a group-based intervention to enhance skills for managing life stressors, daily functioning, and social connection.

Background Long-term and high-intensity work can lead to considerable discomfort in people’s cervical spines. Objectives This study sought to explore the effect of mind-body exercise intervention on the cervical spine mobility of people with neck discomfort through meta-analysis. Methods This study’s researchers were searched a total of five research databases for data retrieval: China National Knowledge Infrastructure (from 1979), Web of Science (from 1950), PubMed (from 1965), Cochrane (from 1991), and EBSCO (from 1949) (Date of retrieval: March 10, 2021). Two authors independently searched literature records, scanned titles, abstracts, and full texts, collected data, and assessed materials for risk of bias. Stata14.0 software was used for the data analysis (Registration number: INPLASY202140126). Results Four articles were finally included with a total of 208 participants, and their age range was 18–65 years old. (1) Mind-body exercise intervention had a significant improving effect on Cervical extension, effect size of [SMD = 0.51 (95% CI 0.13 to 0.88), p <0.01; I2 = 45.2%], there was moderate heterogeneity; Mind-body exercise intervention had a significant improving effect on Cervical flexion, effect size of [SMD = 0.61 (95% CI 0.32 to 0.90), p <0.01; I2 = 5.7%], no heterogeneity; (2) Mind-body exercise intervention was no effect on the other four cervical range of motions; (3) The difference in participant’s neck discomfort was the source of heterogeneity, and all results had the potential risk of publication bias. Conclusion This study showed that mind-body exercise had a positive effect on the extension and flexion of people with neck discomfort. However, further research and more reliable evidence were needed to prove that mind–body exercise could be used for the treatment of neck discomfort.

Abstract Objective To evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a mind–body intervention for moderate to severe primary dysmenorrhea (PD). Design Open trial (single arm). Setting Academic medical school. Subjects A total of 20 young adult women with moderate to severe primary dysmenorrhea were included across four separate intervention groups. Methods All participants received five 90-minute sessions of a mind–body intervention and completed self-report measures of menstrual pain, depression, anxiety, somatization, and pain catastrophizing at baseline, post-treatment, and at one-, two-, three-, and 12-month follow-up. Self-report of medication use and use of skills learned during the intervention were also collected at all follow-up points. Results Participants reported significantly lower menstrual pain over time compared with baseline. No changes in anxiety, depression, or somatization were observed, although pain catastrophizing improved over time. Changes in menstrual pain were not associated with changes in medication use or reported use of skills. Conclusions A mind–body intervention is a promising nondrug intervention for primary dysmenorrhea, and future research should focus on testing the intervention further as part of a randomized clinical trial.

Abstract In a secondary analysis, this study examined differences in age (younger vs. older geriatric groups), gender, and living arrangement (living alone vs. living with others) in elderly patients with osteoarthritis (OA) who utilized chair yoga (CY) as an type of movement-based mind-body intervention (MMBI) for symptom management. A two-arm, assessor-blinded, randomized control trial was used to examine effects of CY (twice-weekly 45-minute sessions for 8 weeks) on pain interference, physical function, and psychosocial outcomes by gender, age, and living arrangement in older adults with OA who could not participate in traditional exercise. A total of 112 older adults completed CY or a health education program (HEP) and participated in five data collection points. Older women in the CY group showed greater reduction in pain interference during the CY intervention than those in HEP, F(4, 86) = 3.255, p = .016, η2 = .131. The younger group (ages 61 to 74) had decreased depression scores during the intervention, F(4, 87) = 2.598, p = .042, η2 = .107. Regardless of the intervention (CY or HEP), depression scores in older adults who were living alone decreased substantially during the intervention. Group-based and supervised CY interventions are recommended for older adults with OA to reduce pain interference, reduce depressive symptoms, and develop social networks. Online-based synchronous CY sessions may address physical activity needs and improve mental well-being in this population in light of physical distancing practices due to COVID-19.

The school nurse is often sought out by students because he or she has an ability to listen to the student, offers an intervention that focuses attention on the student, and allows the student to experience her or his symptom in a new way. Helping the student to change the way the symptom is experienced, shifting focus, and adapting to a new awareness are all ways of using mind-body concepts. Many states’ Boards of Nursing Registration have developed rulings expanding the scope of practice to include mind-body interventions. This article will explain three such interventions applicable to the school nurse setting: breathing exercises, mindfulness practices, and the use of imagery.

(1) Background: The Mediterranean-DASH intervention for neurodegenerative delay (MIND) diet and forest bathing (FB) are first-line therapies for controlling hypertension. This study aimed to investigate the combined effects of a MIND diet and FB and MIND diet alone among older Chinese patients with hypertension. (2) Methods: Seventy-two participants aged >50 with stages 1 or 2 hypertension were randomly assigned to the MIND group (n = 23), MIND-FB group (n = 25), or control group (n = 24). Systolic blood pressure (SBP) (primary outcome), point-of-care tests for blood lipid panel and glucose (Glu), anxiety levels, mood states, body mass index (BMI), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), and body fat percentage (BFP) were measured. (3) Results: After a four-week intervention, the change in SBP revealed no significant differences between the intervention groups, and SBP tended to decrease in the MIND and MIND-FB groups. Total cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) were significantly decreased (p < 0.01), Triglycerides (TG) and Glu levels were significantly lower (p < 0.05) in the MIND-FB and MIND groups, and the mean differences for anxiety level and negative mood states were significantly lower (p < 0.00) in MIND-FB group. (4) Conclusions: The results provide preliminary evidence that the MIND diet and FB are good for promoting cardiac and mental health well-being in the Chinese population.

Studies have evidenced that epigenetic marks associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) can be inherited from parents or acquired through fetal and early-life events, as well as through lifelong environments or lifestyles, which can increase the risk of diabetes in adulthood. However, epigenetic modifications are reversible, and can be altered through proper intervention, thus mitigating the risk factors of T2D. Mind–body intervention (MBI) refers to interventions like meditation, yoga, and qigong, which deal with both physical and mental well-being. MBI not only induces psychological changes, such as alleviation of depression, anxiety, and stress, but also physiological changes like parasympathetic activation, lower cortisol secretion, reduced inflammation, and aging rate delay, which are all risk factors for T2D. Notably, MBI has been reported to reduce blood glucose in patients with T2D. Herein, based on recent findings, we review the effects of MBI on diabetes and the mechanisms involved, including epigenetic modifications.

Background: Advancements in early detection and treatment of cancer have led to increased survival rates and greater need to identify effective supportive care options for resolving symptoms of survivorship. Many non-pharmacological approaches to symptom management during and after cancer treatment involve emotional self-regulation as a central strategy for improving well-being. Identifying commonalities among these strategies’ mechanisms of action may facilitate understanding of what might be useful for optimizing intervention effects. Heart rate variability (HRV) parameters are indicative of improved autonomic nervous system (ANS) balance and resiliency and reduced emotional distress and are thus identified as a mechanism to discuss as a marker of potential for intervention efficacy and a target for optimization. Methods: HRV data from 2 studies, 1 examining a mind-body intervention and 1 examining a psychosocial intervention, are presented as a point of discussion about preliminary associations between the interventions, change in HRV, and emotional distress reduction. Results: HRV significantly decreased in sympathetic activity in response to a mind-body intervention (Qigong/Tai Chi), and increased vagal tone in response to a psychosocial (storytelling) intervention. In both, these changes in HRV parameters were associated with improved emotional states. Conclusion: Our preliminary data suggest that HRV may serve as an important marker of underlying changes that mediate emotional regulation; this observation deserves further investigation. If identified as a worthy target, focusing on interventions that improve HRV within the context of interventions for cancer patients may be important to key outcomes and clinical practice.

Background: Nurse burnout could affect nurse's professional competence. Either physical or emotional burnout was related to an ineffective individual coping and emotional intelligence. The nurse burnout could be coped with a direct intervention on the individuals who practically focused on the mind and body system.Purposes: This research was aimed to identify the effects of mind and body-based therapies (MBT and PMR) for nurse burnout.Methods: This research was quasi-experimental with two groups pretest-posttest design. The sample of this study was 50 nurses in the medical-surgical wards who were divided into intervention MBT and PMR with a simple random sampling technique. Collecting data using burnout syndrome measurements on nurses applied pre and post-intervention, which was analyzed by Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney test.Results: The mean value of the burnout subscale decreased significantly (emotional exhaustion and depersonalization) and increased (personal accomplishment) after the MBT and PMR programs (p<0.05). The comparison of effect between the two intervention groups on nurse burnout syndrome found no significant positive difference in the mean scores (p>0.05). Conclusions: Mind body-based therapies (MBT and PMR) could reduce burnout syndrome significantly.

Due to their overall health advantages, mind-body interventions (MBIs), including meditation, yoga, mindfulness, and tai chi, have been increasingly embraced in wellness centres. This study methodically goes over the body of current research using actual survey data to assess how well MBIs enhance emotional, physical, and mental health. Combining primary data from a structured survey with secondary sources offers strong analysis of the actual influence of these methods. The results imply that MBIs greatly lower stress, improve cognitive ability, and encourage long-lasting conduct. The report ends with strategic advice for optimising MBI initiatives in wellness centres, particularly by including digital health solutions to increase access and adherence. Keywords: Mindfulness, Wellness Centre, Stress Reduction, Mind-Body Intervention, Physical Activity, Emotional Resilience, Behavioural Change.

Studies investigating perceived stress and mindfulness awareness support mind-body therapy (MBT) effectiveness in reducing stress and anxiety and, thus, has potential to decrease work-related stress. A pre/postexperimental design involved 30 faculty and staff working at Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, Saint Kitts and Nevis, who experienced a two-day MBT intervention programme. An additional 16 faculty and staff not involved in MBT who went about their daily work schedules served as contemporary controls. Demographics, Perceived Stress Scale 10 (PSS-10), Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS), 16 Personality Factor (16PF) Openness to Change subscale and saliva cortisol concentrations were analysed. Control participants reported significantly perceived less stress (PSS-10: M=13; sd=1.4) than intervention participants (M=20; sd=6.6) during pretest. However, at post-test the intervention group reported a significant decrease in perceived stress (M=11; sd=6.0). MAAS pretest results indicated the intervention group displayed a lower average score (M=54; sd=15.3) than control participants (M=68; sd=2.0). Post-MAAS intervention scores showed improvements in mindfulness (M=63; sd=15.3). Correlations between the 16PF Openness to Change subscale and MAAS were r=0.03 and r=−0.17 for the intervention and control groups, respectively. Mean concentrations of saliva cortisol indicated a larger and significant decline in cortisol for the intervention group both during day 1 (P=0.0001) and day 2 (P=0.0008). In conclusion, these preliminary results provide support that MBTs in veterinary academia can improve psychological and physiological aspects of personal wellbeing.

The increase in the prevalence and disease burden of diabetes has highlighted the need to strengthen a comprehensive care system that includes mental health treatment. A systematic review was carried out to analyze the effectiveness of mind-body training as a therapy for the mental health management of adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Pubmed, Scopus and Web of Science databases were consulted between November and December 2022. Eight articles were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Only randomized controlled trials were included. The interventions focused on mindfulness and yoga with variable durations of between 8 weeks and 6 months. Four of the included studies observed statistically significant changes (p < 0.05) in anxiety. Six articles determined that mind-body training was effective for treating depression. Finally, five articles found favorable effects on stress, while one did not observe changes at 8 weeks of intervention or after 1 year of follow-up. The evidence supports the use of mind-body training to reduce stress, depression, and anxiety levels in the adult population with T2DM, which makes this type of training a valuable intervention to be included in an integral approach to diabetic pathology.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) on enhancing emotion recognition and strengthening the mind-body connection. A randomized controlled trial design was employed with 30 participants randomly assigned to either an intervention group (ACT) or a control group, each consisting of 15 participants. The intervention group underwent eight 60-minute ACT sessions over eight weeks, while the control group received no intervention. Data were collected at three time points: baseline, post-intervention, and four-month follow-up, using the Emotion Recognition Questionnaire (ERQ) and the Mindful Awareness and Body Connection Scale (MABC). Data analysis involved repeated measures ANOVA and Bonferroni post-hoc tests, conducted using SPSS-27. Significant improvements were observed in the intervention group compared to the control group. For the intervention group, the mean ERQ score increased from 58.40 (SD = 6.85) at baseline to 72.30 (SD = 5.90) post-intervention, and slightly decreased to 70.50 (SD = 6.20) at follow-up. In contrast, the control group showed no significant changes, with mean ERQ scores of 57.90 (SD = 7.10) at baseline, 58.60 (SD = 6.95) post-intervention, and 57.80 (SD = 7.00) at follow-up. Repeated measures ANOVA revealed significant effects for group (F(1, 28) = 15.76, p < .001), time (F(2, 56) = 20.78, p < .001), and the interaction between time and group (F(2, 56) = 15.26, p < .001). Bonferroni post-hoc tests confirmed significant improvements in the intervention group from baseline to post-intervention (mean difference = -13.90, p < .001) and baseline to follow-up (mean difference = -12.10, p < .001). ACT significantly enhances emotion recognition and strengthens the mind-body connection. These improvements are sustained over time, highlighting ACT's potential as an effective intervention for these psychological domains.

Objective: Evaluate a comprehensive educational intervention in groups of new students in engineering, using techniques for the management of their mental health, to reinforce their conditions for learning. Theoretical Framework: Development of graphic organizers, reinforcement of self-esteem, ability to concentrate, and balanced diet, strengthen study habits and techniques, maintaining mental health, and improving school performance. This topic presents the main concepts and theories that support the research. Method: An educational intervention was designed and carried out for 550 engineering students. They joined a workshop on personal balance for their entry in 2017. Perception surveys and personal testimonies were applied. Their academic performance was analyzed after one year and contrasted with other generations. Results and Discussion: Testimonials and responses to perception surveys from students and the teacher showed more than 82% acceptance. The techniques were perceived as beneficial elements for personal life, and an alternative for mental health management. Their academic performance one year after entering was similar to that of those who had a better entry profile. Research Implications: The results were used to establish an engineering entry strategy and improve the school career, benefiting terminal efficiency. Originality/Value: This study offers the evaluation of the comprehensive intervention applied to engineering students to guide the admission strategy.
