It evaluates whether this intervention can reduce depression, anxiety, stress; improve coping skills; enhance life meaning and purpose; boost self-esteem in women; and lower aggression in men.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this is a mind-body intervention focusing on skill development rather than medication or medical procedures, traditional physical side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience emotional discomfort as they explore personal challenges during sessions.
