Techniques such as psychoeducation, reflection and self-observation, cognitive restructuring, problem solving, stress inoculation, progressive muscle relaxation, guided visualizations and mindfulness are applied.~The program consists of 10 modules focused on different areas: introduction to the study, mindfulness and breathing techniques, physical and mental health at different stages of pregnancy, fetal development and prenatal attachment, couple relationship, preparation for childbirth and postpartum, and care of the newborn."
