Abstract
We employed a sleep-based meditation workshop to investigate common maladies plaguing college students and veterans. Common themes emerged, and analysis revealed benefits on general well-being, mood, and anxiety. Cost-effective prosocial interventions advocating a personalized values-based approach deserve consideration within military and educational environments where prevention and resilience remains crucial.
