Mind and Body Interventions to Restore Whole Person Health via Emotional Well-Being Mechanisms
Funds mechanistic trials testing how mind-body practices change emotional well-being, in two gated phases.
Mind-body practices like mindfulness, yoga, acupuncture, and massage are widely used and rarely explained. This notice funds finding the mechanism behind them, not just whether people feel better.
What is asked for is mechanistic research: how these psychological or physical interventions affect the mechanisms of emotional well-being, and how those mechanisms relate to a broader measure the notic…
Mechanistic clinical trials, phased across a feasibility stage and a full-scale stage, testing how mind and body interventions — psychological or physical — affect mechanisms of emotional well-being and their relationship to the Whole Person Health Index. A clinical trial is required.
