Sponsor's own description

In the fight against the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, health personnel, especially nursing staff, have been facing enormous pressure, including a high risk of infection and inadequate protection against contamination, overwork, frustration, discrimination, isolation, lack of contact with their families and exhaustion. Therefore, the World Health Organization (WHO) has requested particular interventions to promote emotional well-being in health workers exposed to COVID-19, which must be implemented immediately, especially those aimed at women and nursing staff. . Psychological support services, including counseling or intervention via phone, internet, and apps, have been widely deployed by local and national mental health institutions in response to the COVID-19 outbreak. Complementing these efforts, the present study seeks, through mind-body medicine strategies, to promote resilience among nurses exposed to COVID-19 in critical phases. A multidisciplinary team of expert volunteers designed the intervention in different mind-body medicine techniques (for example, medicine, psychology, thanatology, meditation, health, and wellness coaches, certified Qi Gong, and yoga instructors) and is made up of 3 components main: "micropractices," cohesion and support groups, which will be implemented for 12 weeks in health personnel. This intervention responds to the international call to promote health personnel's physical and emotional health during the COVID-19 pandemic, offering an opportunity to accompany them during this time and mitigate the effects on health in the short and long term.
