What is it about?
This app offers mindfulness exercises for adolescents. These exercises might help to reduce symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression. The mindfulness exercises adhere to a standardized protocol developed from the mindfulness-based stress reduction (Kabat-Zinn, 1990) and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (Segal, Williams and Teasdale, 2002) manuals. Participants are instructed to select specific guided exercises based on their own time-schedule. The skills training has different formats including: movies (talking heads), audio files, and text supported by graphic figures.
