Article Synopsis
- Mind-body medicine (MBM) serves as a self-care intervention, helping healthcare leaders cope with work-related stress and enhance resilience, particularly after trauma from events like the COVID-19 pandemic.
- The study assessed the effects of an 8-week peer support MBM program on nurse leaders’ perceived stress, resilience, well-being, and empathy, using pre and post-intervention surveys, as well as follow-ups at 1 and 6 months.
- Results showed a significant decrease in perceived stress and an initial increase in resilience after the intervention, but resilience declined after 6 months; participants identified time and workload as barriers, while valuing peer support and emotional processing.
