Body Mind Training
Body-Mind Training (BMT): A 12-week, group-based program delivered by live videoconference twice per week for 60 minutes. Each session includes a warm-up, gentle body movements combined with meditation, breathing techniques, and relaxation exercises. Movements can be completed while seated or standing to support participant safety and different physical abilities. Participants will also receive instructional videos and a manual to support home practice and will be encouraged to practice for at least 30 minutes, three days per week. The final four weeks of the program will emphasize skill consolidation and continued practice.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - Insomnia
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I): An 8-week, group-based program delivered by live videoconference once per week for 60 minutes by a licensed bilingual psychologist experienced in CBT-I. Sessions include sleep education, sleep restriction, stimulus control, cognitive therapy, relaxation, sleep hygiene, and relapse prevention. Participants will be encouraged to practice the skills learned during sessions for at least 30 minutes per day, three days per week.
