AI and Mindfulness Meditation for Stress Reduction in Medical Students

간략 요약

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if two stress-reduction methods can lower stress in medical students. The study compares a wearable device and a mindfulness program. The wearable device sends gentle vibrations to the body, while the mindfulness program teaches meditation and stress awareness skills. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the wearable device lower stress levels in medical students? * Does mindfulness meditation lower stress levels in medical students? * Is one method more effective than the other? Researchers will compare the wearable device to the mindfulness program to see if one works better for reducing stress. Participants are medical students from Saint James School of Medicine. Each participant will try both methods during the study. Participants will: * Use the wearable device daily for four weeks * Complete a four-week mindfulness meditation program * Take a one-week break between the two methods * Complete surveys about stress and satisfaction * Have heart rate variability (HRV) measured to assess stress levels This study will help researchers understand whether wearable technology or mindfulness training is more effective for managing stress in medical students. It may also show if both methods can improve how the body responds to stress over time.
