Virtual Forest-Based Mindfulness for Perinatal Mental Health

26. maj 2026 opdateret af: National Taiwan University Hospital

Evaluating the Effects of an Integrated Virtual Forest Environment and Mindfulness-Based Intervention on Mental Health in Perinatal Women

Perinatal anxiety and depression are common mental health concerns that may negatively affect maternal well-being, infant development, and family functioning. Mindfulness-based interventions have shown beneficial effects on reducing psychological distress during pregnancy; however, maintaining attention and engagement during mindfulness practice may be challenging for some pregnant women.

This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of an integrated virtual forest environment and mindfulness-based intervention for improving mental health in perinatal women. Pregnant women between 20 and 24 weeks of gestation will be randomly assigned to either an experimental group receiving virtual reality (VR)-based forest mindfulness intervention or a control group receiving conventional mindfulness intervention.

Both groups will participate in a 9-week mindfulness program and receive app-based mindfulness practice. The experimental group will additionally receive immersive VR forest-based mindfulness sessions during prenatal visits. Outcomes including anxiety, depression, mindfulness awareness, physiological indicators, and intervention acceptability will be assessed during pregnancy and postpartum follow-up.

Deltagergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Eksperimentel: VR-Based Mindfulness Intervention
Participants will receive immersive virtual reality-based forest mindfulness intervention combined with a 9-week mindfulness program and app-based mindfulness practice during pregnancy.
Adfærdsmæssigt: Virtual Reality Forest Mindfulness Intervention
Participants will receive immersive virtual reality-based forest mindfulness intervention combined with mindfulness-guided practice during pregnancy.
Aktiv komparator: Conventional Mindfulness Intervention
Participants will receive conventional mindfulness guidance combined with a 9-week mindfulness program and app-based mindfulness practice during pregnancy without virtual reality exposure. The intervention includes mindfulness-guided audio focusing on breathing awareness, emotional regulation, present-moment attention, and maternal-fetal connection.

Tidsramme
Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) Score
Tidsramme: Baseline (20-24 weeks gestation), post-intervention (32 weeks gestation to before delivery), and 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months postpartum
Perinatal anxiety will be assessed using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), a 7-item self-report questionnaire with scores ranging from 0 to 21. Higher scores indicate greater anxiety severity.
Baseline (20-24 weeks gestation), post-intervention (32 weeks gestation to before delivery), and 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months postpartum
Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) Score
Tidsramme: Baseline (20-24 weeks gestation), post-intervention (32 weeks gestation to before delivery), and 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months postpartum
Perinatal depression will be assessed using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS), a 10-item self-report questionnaire with scores ranging from 0 to 30. Higher scores indicate greater depressive symptom severity.
Baseline (20-24 weeks gestation), post-intervention (32 weeks gestation to before delivery), and 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months postpartum

Tidsramme
Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) Score
Tidsramme: Baseline (20-24 weeks gestation), post-intervention (32 weeks gestation to before delivery), and 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months postpartum
Mindfulness awareness will be assessed using the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS), a 15-item self-report questionnaire measuring present-moment awareness and attentional focus in daily life. Each item is rated on a 6-point scale, and total scores are calculated after reverse scoring. Scores range from 15 to 90, with higher scores indicating greater mindfulness awareness.

Heart Rate Variability
Tidsramme: Immediately before and after each of the four in-person intervention sessions conducted between 24 and 32 weeks of gestation during pregnancy
Heart rate variability will be assessed as a physiological indicator of autonomic nervous system activity and stress regulation during the intervention sessions.
Immediately before and after each of the four in-person intervention sessions conducted between 24 and 32 weeks of gestation during pregnancy
Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressure
Tidsramme: Immediately before and after each of the four in-person intervention sessions conducted between 24 and 32 weeks of gestation during pregnancy
Systolic and diastolic blood pressure will be measured to assess physiological responses associated with stress and relaxation during the intervention sessions.

Short-term mindfulness awareness will be assessed using the State Mindfulness Scale (SMS), a 21-item self-report questionnaire measuring present-moment awareness of internal experiences, including emotions, thoughts, and bodily sensations. The scale includes psychological mindfulness and bodily mindfulness domains and uses a 5-point Likert scale. Scores range from 21 to 105, with higher scores indicating greater state mindfulness awareness.

Fetal Heart Rate
Tidsramme: Immediately before and after each of the four in-person intervention sessions conducted between 24 and 32 weeks of gestation during pregnancy
Fetal heart rate (beats per minute) will be monitored to evaluate maternal-fetal physiological responses during the intervention sessions.
Immediately before and after each of the four in-person intervention sessions conducted between 24 and 32 weeks of gestation during pregnancy
Intervention Acceptability and Satisfaction
Tidsramme: Immediately after each of the four in-person intervention sessions conducted between 24 and 32 weeks of gestation during pregnancy
Participant satisfaction and acceptability of the intervention will be evaluated using a study-developed post-session feedback questionnaire assessing satisfaction, perceived enjoyment, intervention experience, and physical discomfort during the intervention sessions. Satisfaction-related items are rated on a 5-point Likert scale. Total scores range from 3 to 15, with higher scores indicating greater intervention acceptability and satisfaction.
