Summary

This trial aims to see if an online program combining physical activity and mindfulness can help women who have experienced abuse from a partner. The program includes videos, support from other participants, and encourages choosing activities.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women who have experienced abuse from a relationship partner and are looking to increase their physical activity, improve emotion regulation, and reduce stress and PTSD symptoms. Participants should be comfortable using the internet as the program is online.
What is being tested?
The 'Moving Forward Together 2.0' intervention tests an online program combining physical activity with mindfulness to help participants exercise more, manage emotions better, and lower stress levels. It includes videos, peer support, and encourages self-chosen activities over eight weeks.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this is a non-medical intervention focusing on physical activity and mindfulness training via an online platform, there may not be direct side effects like those seen with medications; however, increased physical activity could lead to muscle soreness or injury if not done carefully.
