Doing What Matters in times of stress (DWM)

Doing What Matters in times of stress (DWM) is a smartphone-based intervention, delivered over five weeks with a trained facilitator. It teaches strategies for handling daily stress through mindfulness and relaxation exercises.

Under the program name "MentaalFit", the Dutch team of ADVANCE will examine the benefits of the combination of an interactive manager training on mental health (ASCEND) and an online based stress management program (DWM) for SME employees.
