Summary
This pilot study tested a 10-week compassion-based resiliency training (CBRT) program in 22 African American adults to see if it could help reduce stress from racism. The program taught mindfulness, self-awareness, and stress-reduction techniques. Researchers measured stress, mood, sleep, and biological markers like cortisol and gene expression. The goal was to see if the program was feasible and acceptable, and if it showed early signs of helping with psychological well-being.
