Improving Congenital Heart Disease Care
Sorry, not yet accepting patients
The theory-informed digital health intervention, called as "Empower My Congenital Health (EmpowerMyCH)" aims to activate and engage ACHD patients in building confidence toward navigating the adult healthcare system. This tool is built after incorporating the theories of behavior change, gathering inputs from target patients in all stages of its design and implementation. The key features of the tool include a digital medical passport, updated congenital information, community support, and patient stories and advice. The investigators aim to test the acceptability, feasibility, efficacy, and effectiveness of the intervention.

Mindful Motivation for Reducing Binge Eating
Sorry, not yet accepting patients
The aim of this study is to test how acceptable and feasible a new eating intervention is in people with overweight and binge eating. This intervention combines mindful eating with motivational interviewing to target binge eating. The main questions this clinical trial aims to answer are: How well do participants accept the new intervention (acceptability)? Is the intervention practical and easy to implement (feasibility)? In this trial researchers will compare the new eating intervention (motivational interviewing for mindful eating + digital meditation) to an active control (digital meditation) to see if the intervention can help reduce binge eating. Participants will: 1. Take online questionnaires at four different time points 2. Provide body composition and samples to measure glucose levels 3. Meditate for at least 10 minutes a day 4. If assigned to the Mindful Motivation group, 8 weeks of brief counseling
