Key findings The self-guided internet-based mindfulness-informed stress management program reduced anxiety symptoms in adults with generalized anxiety disorder compared to a control condition. Longitudinal network analysis indicated shifts in symptom connectivity, suggesting the intervention may alter how anxiety symptoms interact. The authors propose that such digital interventions could be a viable treatment option, though they call for more research.
