One-day acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) workshop improves anxiety but not vascular function or inflammation in adults with moderate to high anxiety levels in a randomized controlled trial
Anxiety has been found to be related to cardiovascular disease. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is an evidence-based therapy shown to reduce anxiety in people experiencing chronic anxiety and psychological distress. In this paper, we explored whether a one-day ACT could help adults with moderate to high anxiety levels. We were interested in whether this workshop could not only reduce anxiety but also improve cardiac health.
