Summary

This protocol proposes a well-being program, delivered through an application for mobile devices, based on meditation and positive psychology principles such as human development, the improvement of virtues, quality of life and well-being. The investigators hypothesize that this program offered in mobile application may promote well-being and reduce stress related problems in the participants.

Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of a well-being program delivered through an application for mobile devices in a sample of employees who work in a company (Natura Inovação/Cosméticos) and in a hospital (Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein).

Methods: Two hundred and fifty employees from Natura Inovação/Cosméticos and 250 employees from Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein will be recruited. The participants will be randomized in two groups of 125 participants each one, half of them in the control group (GC) and the other half to the intervention group (GI), by institution.
