This trial is testing a special mindfulness-based education program for people living with schizophrenia. The program is designed to help reduce the shame or negative feelings people sometimes internalize about having a mental health diagnosis, and to help build healthier everyday habits like exercise, nutrition, stress management, and better relationships. The program takes place over 6 weeks with one-on-one sessions.
Many people with schizophrenia struggle with internalized stigma—negative beliefs about themselves because of their diagnosis—which can interfere with recovery and quality of life. This trial is testing whether a mindfulness and education approach can help reduce those painful feelings while also helping people develop healthy lifestyle habits that support their overall wellbeing.
