Sleep consider a restorative occupation that affects other daily activities, such as academic performance. Mindfulness meditation may improve sleep quality and decrease perceived stress in higher education students. There is limited research on virtual mindfulness meditation involving sleep quality and perceived stress in higher education students. The researchers will measure changes in sleep quality and perceived stress after participants completed 8- virtual mindfulness meditation sessions using PSQI, PSS, and the Fitbit Inspire 2™.
