About Our Projects
Currently we are working on multiple projects simultaneously, towards the same goal of enhancing wellness within the teen population. Check out one of our current projects attached below!
Relax, Reflect, Empower (RRE)
Building upon previous research, the investigative team has developed a new mobile health application (Relax, Reflect, Empower [RRE]) to deliver individualized and culturally tailored content aimed at preventing depression and improving well-being among CAAs. One innovative aspect of RRE is that it will recommend personalized strategies based on Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and Critical Consciousness (CC).

Bilingual Guided Meditation (BGM®)
Meditation practices such as mindfulness meditation, concentration meditation, and guided meditation have been found to significantly reduce anxiety levels and are related to improved grades, learning ability, and short-and long-term recall. Our team members came together because of a common awareness—The need to nurture the whole person in the classes we teach. Our holistic approach to teaching aims to improve students’ learning through nurturing a relaxed and positive mind by using a contemplative technique—BGM®.
