Wellness Exploration Research Hub

A Collaborative Approach to Personal Insight & Community Learning

Important Participation Guidelines

This is not a clinical trial or medical research study. This is a citizen-science initiative for personal exploration and collective learning about wellness practices.

  • Participation does NOT constitute medical treatment
  • This project does NOT diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease
  • You MUST maintain all current medical treatments and consultations
  • This is a complementary self-observation project only

What Is the Wellness Exploration Project?

This initiative brings together individuals interested in taking an active, mindful role in their holistic well-being journey. By systematically tracking specific biometric and subjective data, participants can:

Gain Personal Insights

Learn how different practices affect your personal metrics of well-being, stress, and balance.

Contribute to Collective Understanding

Your anonymized data helps build a broader picture of how people experience wellness practices.

Practice Mindful Self-Care

Develop greater awareness of your mind-body connection through regular self-observation.

Our Data Collection Approach

What We Collect

  • Heart Rate Variability (HRV): Daily 2-5 minute measurements using your smartphone
  • Subjective Well-being: Weekly questionnaires on stress, mood, sleep quality, and energy levels
  • Optional Participation: Records of complementary wellness practices you choose to engage in
  • Demographic Information: Age, gender, country (for research correlation purposes)

How We Protect Your Data

  • Anonymization: All personal identifiers removed before analysis
  • Encryption: Data stored with industry-standard encryption
  • Control: You decide what data to contribute
  • Transparency: Access to aggregated findings for all participants

Current Participation Status: Open for Enrollment

We are currently seeking 50 committed participants for our initial 8-week exploration phase.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is this a medical study or clinical trial?

No. This is a citizen-science initiative focused on personal exploration and collective learning about wellness practices. It is not governed by medical research protocols, institutional review boards (IRBs), or clinical trial regulations. We are exploring correlations between self-care practices and subjective well-being metrics, not testing medical treatments.

2. What if I'm currently undergoing medical treatment?

You may participate only if you continue all prescribed medical treatments and follow your doctor's advice. This project is explicitly designed as a complementary exploration, not an alternative to medical care. You must check the agreement box confirming your commitment to continue medical treatment.

3. How is my data protected?

All personal identifiers (name, email, etc.) are stored separately from your wellness data. Shared data is completely anonymized. We use industry-standard encryption for data storage and transmission. You have the right to withdraw your data at any time.

4. What happens after I submit my application?

We review applications weekly. If accepted, you'll receive:

  1. A welcome email with detailed onboarding instructions
  2. Guidance on setting up HRV measurement
  3. Access to the weekly questionnaire system
  4. Information about optional Curotherapy sessions (separate from the research project)

Not all applicants are accepted, as we aim to maintain a committed, responsible participant group.
