Sponsor's own description

This quantitative study assesses the baseline loneliness scores in all the high school students in the US. Assessments at baseline will include the UCLA loneliness scale. The Google form questionnaire will ask the high schoolers for their email address and their parent's email address (if they are under 18). The form will also include a question eliciting interest in participation in the 4-weeks Heartfulness program. The program will include tools that promote a heart-based nurturing environment focusing on relaxation, positivity, and developing growth mindsets.
