From Health Information to Health Decisions Integrating Mindfulness Into Digital Learning and Daily Life

Structured over 8 weeks (twice weekly) with dual modules (dietary + movement), this group employs Mindfulness-Based Eating Awareness Training (MB-EAT) to improve mind-body awareness. Week 1 establishes foundational practices through mindful eating concepts and introductory yoga; Weeks 2-4 systematically train awareness of hunger/satiety cues using partner breathing techniques, postural alignment, and group-assisted stretching; Week 5 analyzes emotional eating triggers while integrating therapeutic yoga for emotional regulation; Weeks 6-7 foster body acceptance and autonomous food choices; the program concludes with closing rituals. Rooted in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), it strengthens interoceptive awareness, non-judgmental self-acceptance, and emotional management to transform dysfunctional eating patterns.

This 8-week program (twice weekly) aims to enhance participants' ability to access, evaluate, and apply digital health information. It progresses through sequential modules: Week 1 introduces e-Health literacy fundamentals and physical activity principles; Weeks 2-3 focus on nutritional assessment and personalized planning; Week 4 addresses sleep health; Weeks 5-7 train health information retrieval skills, including database navigation and source reliability verification; the final week hones critical appraisal capabilities. The intervention is based on the e-Health Literacy 3.0 model and cultivates three core competencies: digital navigation, information discernment, and evidence-based decision-making, enabling participants to independently navigate the digital health ecosystem.
