Mindstrong
As part of the Nursing 1100 course, students will participate in Mindstrong. Mindstrong is an evidence-based cognitive skills-building program launched by Ohio State University College of Nursing with a goal of improving resiliency and self-protective factors for the overall wellbeing of college students. The aim of the 7 weekly sessions are to improve overall mental and physical health and support positive adaptation to stress, anxiety and depression. The sessions provide in-between practice to establish and support the positive behavior patterns and are in a manualized format. The Mindstrong program approaches wellbeing and mental health in two ways, providing preventive techniques and proven methods for those who have anxiety and depressive symptomatology. There are 16 research studies supporting positive findings in lowering depression, anxiety, and stress among those with elevated symptoms. The Mindstrong program emphasizes consistent evidence-based interventions and healthy lifestyle behavior for preventive lifestyle modifications to improve mental and physical wellbeing.
