Summary

The Center for Mind -Body Medicine has developed a mind-body skills group program that incorporates meditation, guided imagery, breathing techniques, autogenic training, biofeedback, genograms, and self-expression through words, drawings, and movement. These mind-body skills are designed to increase self-awareness and self-regulation. This program has been shown to significantly improve depression symptoms in children and adolescents with posttraumatic stress disorder in Gaza, but it has not yet been tested in a US adolescent population. The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of using mind-body skills groups to reduce depression in adolescents and to investigate the effects of the program on factors such as self-efficacy, mindfulness and rumination which are likely to mediate improvement.
