The University of South Australia and the Adelaide Southern Regions Transcendental Meditation® Centre are inviting women to participate in an exciting new study to test the effectiveness of two approaches to stress reduction. The 16-week study, called Strengthening the Inner Woman, will compare the effectiveness of group support (group discussions facilitated by a qualified social worker) and the Transcendental Meditation® technique (a simple relaxation technique taught by qualified instructors), as ways to improve stress levels, mood and quality of life in women. Sessions will be held at Hackham West, South Australia. Participants will receive a small honorarium for their time. Starting date: February 10th, 2021 Participants will be required to attend every group session and complete a questionnaire at the beginning, middle and end of the study.
