SPIRITUALITY TEACHING PROGRAM FOR EMOTIONAL DISTRESS IN ADULTS

A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL - DECEMBER 2006

To evaluate the efficacy of a home-based spirituality education program on mood disturbance in emotionally distressed patients. Results from this study suggest that a home study based, 8-week spirituality education program reduces total mood disturbance, particularly with regard to depression, tension, anger, and fatigue in the short term (up to 12 weeks). The program could be a resource for physicians who are helping emotionally distressed patients.
