Summary

This trial tests whether a single, 30-minute guided body awareness session can alter brain wave patterns and improve the ability to sense one's own heartbeat. Healthy young adults aged 18-25 are randomly assigned to either the body awareness session or quiet rest. Brain activity is measured with a portable EEG, and heartbeat perception is tested before and after. The goal is to see if a brief mindfulness-like practice can produce measurable changes in the brain and body awareness.

What this could lead to: If it works, this could point toward simple, non-drug ways to improve mind-body awareness and mental well-being.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage trial in healthy volunteers, so results may not apply to clinical populations. The effects of a single session may be subtle or short-lived.
