Summary

This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of a brief yoga- and mindfulness-based psychoeducation program and its working mechanisms in improving psychological health parameters (depression, anxiety, and stress) among women who have experienced domestic violence (DV). In a randomized controlled trial, 51 DV-victimized women were assigned to an intervention group (n = 27) or a waitlist control group (n = 24). The intervention was a five-week yoga- and mindfulness-based psychoeducation program. The researchers planned to provide support for the effectiveness of a brief yoga- and mindfulness-based psychoeducation program for improving the psychological health of DV-victimized women. Self-compassion and rumination were hypothesized as working mechanisms underlying the intervention's success.
