culturally tailored mindfulness-positive psychological intervention

This 3-week culturally tailored mindfulness-positive psychological intervention instructs techniques to enhance positive emotions and meditation exercise lasting approximately 30 minutes. The culturally tailored mindfulness-positive psychological intervention consists of four modules: 1) noticing positive events, 2) amplifying positive events, 3) gratitude, and 4) mindfulness and meditation. This 3-dimensional software includes gamification features, including a virtual living room, Japanese garden, art gallery, and meditation garden. A private office and/or space was utilized to implement the culturally tailored mindfulness-positive psychological intervention for older Korean Americans/immigrants, provided by the recruitment sites such as non-profit organization and church. The private room at the sites had a desktop (or laptop) computer, a virtual reality device (Oculus Quest 2), a chair, and a desk.
