The purpose of this research study is to measure whether the Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) techniques of breathing exercises, mindful meditation, and yoga stretching affect the stress indicators of heart rate, blood pressure, and respiration rate during a 4-week stress reduction program. The brief therapy model is tested both from quantitative and qualitative perspectives to determine its effectiveness in reducing stress. The theoretical basis of this research is the seminal work of the Benson and Kabat-Zinn 8-week programs founded at Harvard Medical School and the University of Massachusetts Medical Center, respectively.

520 $a The purpose of this research study is to measure whether the Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) techniques of breathing exercises, mindful meditation, and yoga stretching affect the stress indicators of heart rate, blood pressure, and respiration rate during a 4-week stress reduction program. The brief therapy model is tested both from quantitative and qualitative perspectives to determine its effectiveness in reducing stress. The theoretical basis of this research is the seminal work of the Benson and Kabat-Zinn 8-week programs founded at Harvard Medical School and the University of Massachusetts Medical Center, respectively.
520 $a The data for this research were collected from outpatients at the Foshay Cancer Center of the Jupiter Medical Center in Florida and the program benefits were accessed from physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual perspectives. From the beginning of the first program session to the end of the fourth program session, significant reductions in the average heart rates, systolic blood pressures, and respiration rates of the research participants were recorded. The findings suggest that the brief therapy model can be effective in reducing stress using breathing exercises, mindful meditation, and a major component of yoga stretching.
