The YOMI program is a psychoeducational training and physical practice-based program that bridges knowledge from evidence-based psychotherapy with the practice of mindfulness and yin yoga. It consists of 10 content-specific sessions and does not include home assignments. The primary purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effects of the five-week YOMI program on perceived stress, worry and mindfulness in a non-clinical sample.
In this randomized controlled trial participants were assigned to two groups. Group 1 participated in the five-week intervention twice a week while Group 2 was assigned to a waiting-list condition and participated in the intervention after Group 1. All measures were administered through self-report questionnaires, conducted via a web-based program.
The results of the study indicated significant effects of the YOMI program on decreasing stress and worry, and increasing mindfulness. Notably these changes were still present at five-week follow up. Consistent with the hypotheses, results suggested that the YOMI program established a group setting where individuals learned to use tools and methods to facilitate better self-directed practice. The study shows moderate to large effect sizes.
YOMI项目是一个基于心理教育训练和身体练习的项目，它将循证心理治疗的知识与正念及阴瑜伽练习相结合。该项目包含10个特定内容的课程，且不包括家庭作业。这项随机对照试验的主要目的是评估为期五周的YOMI项目对非临床样本中感知压力、焦虑和正念的影响。
在这项随机对照试验中，参与者被分为两组。第一组每周参加两次为期五周的干预，而第二组被分配到等待名单状态，并在第一组之后参加干预。所有测量均通过基于网络程序进行的自我报告问卷来实施。
研究结果表明，YOMI项目在减轻压力和焦虑以及提高正念方面有显著效果。值得注意的是，这些变化在五周的随访中仍然存在。与假设一致，结果表明YOMI项目建立了一个团体环境，个体在其中学会使用工具和方法来促进更好的自我指导练习。该研究显示出中等至较大的效应量。
