Abstract

Mental health issues during pregnancy affect 15–25% of women, leading to complications such as preterm birth and low birth weight. Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) offer a promising non-pharmacological approach to reducing stress, anxiety, and depression while enhancing maternal and infant well-being. Objective: This review evaluates the effectiveness of mindfulness therapy in improving pregnant women's mental health by reducing anxiety, stress, and depression. A literature review was conducted using PubMed (236), ScienceDirect (106), Google Scholar (965), and Garuda (231) databases . Studies published in the last ten years (2014-2024) on the effects of Mindfulness-Based Interventions (MBIs) on maternal mental health were analyzed. From an initial 1,529 articles, only 10 studies met the inclusion criteria. MBIs, including Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), effectively reduce anxiety, stress, and depression. They improve emotional regulation, quality of life, and mother-infant bonding. Digital mindfulness interventions also show similar benefits. Mindfulness therapy significantly improves mental health during pregnancy, promoting maternal and infant well-being. Integrating MBIs into maternal healthcare services is recommended as an effective non-pharmacological approach.

Abstract

Currently, it is estimated that there are 39.9 million people living with HIV worldwide. In the Asia-Pacific region, there are approximately 6.7 million people living with HIV. In Indonesia, it is estimated that there are around 564,000 people living with HIV. Data from the National Commission for Child Protection shows that 93.7% of adolescents in Indonesia have engaged in kissing, petting, and oral sex. Adolescents' knowledge regarding sexuality is still relatively low. Sexual education is a way to reduce the spread of sexually transmitted diseases. This study aims to determine the influence of VIRASAT (Virtual Reality Sexual Education) media on adolescent behavior leading to free sex. This study used a pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design involving 80 students from SMAN 14 Ambon selected through stratified random sampling. Data on knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors related to free sex were collected using a structured questionnaire administered before and after a virtual reality–based sexual education (VIRASAT) intervention under researcher supervision. The effect of the intervention was analyzed using a paired t-test. The results showed that after the intervention, the majority of respondents had high knowledge (63.8%) with a p-value of 0.013. After the intervention, the majority of respondents had a positive attitude (67.5%) with a p-value of 0.005. After the intervention, the majority of respondents exhibited non-risky behavior (68.8%) with a p-value of 0.004. Thus, it can be interpreted that there is a significant influence between the use of VIRASAT (virtual reality sexual education) media on adolescent behavior leading to free sex at SMAN 14 Ambon. The use of VIRASAT (Virtual Reality Sexual Education) media had a significant effect on adolescents’ knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors related to free sex at SMAN 14 Ambon. After the intervention, most respondents demonstrated high knowledge, positive attitudes, and non-risky sexual behaviors, indicating that VIRASAT is an effective educational medium for preventing risky sexual behavior among adolescents.
