Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine whether an integrative group-based intervention will help children experiencing psychological and physical distress. Children, ages 10 to 12, will be recruited for participation in this therapeutic group. Eligible and consenting participants will be randomized to a wait-list control group or the group intervention. The group intervention will take place over a 12-week period, during which participants will attend a weekly coping skills group that integrates yoga-based practices (such as yoga poses, mindfulness, self-acceptance, breath work) with cognitive-behavioral principles (such as increasing awareness of thoughts and emotions).

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Integrative Coping Group

The proposed 12-week intervention will integrate yoga-based skills with cognitive-behavioral principles. The development of this program was based on existing and empirically-validated cognitive-behavioral interventions for youth (i.e., Coping Cat and Cat Project; Kendall et al.) and therapeutic yoga interventions (e.g., Galantino et al., 2008 for review). The intervention will be broken down into four three-week modules, which address the following: Module 1: Introduction to group and awareness of body Module 2: Awareness of emotion and developing an understanding of the mind-body connection Module 3: Focus on cognitive process Module 4: Experiential practice and therapeutic discussions
