Pemberdayaan Kesehatan Mental Muslimah Alumni Pesantren melalui Edukasi Digital dan Self-Healing Islami: Program Pengabdian Masyarakat Teman Pulihmu

Abstract

The mental health of Muslimah alumni of Islamic boarding schools has increasingly gained attention as they face rising academic, professional, and social demands after graduation. Limited access to mental-health services that are sensitive to Islamic values, along with low psychological literacy, makes many of them vulnerable to stress, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion. The Teman Pulihmu program was developed to provide empowerment through digital education and Islamic-based self-healing practices that are accessible, non-stigmatizing, and aligned with the principles of tauhid. This community service aims to evaluate the program’s effectiveness using a descriptive quantitative method. Participants consisted of Muslimah alumni of pesantren aged 18–30 years. The intervention was delivered through five sessions: understanding Muslimah mental health, Islamic self-healing, journaling healing, simple SEFT, and Islamic affirmations. Initial results indicate an increase in participants’ understanding of Islamic mental health, a reduction in mild stress, and improved self-reflection skills. Participants also reported emotional calmness and positive spiritual experiences after completing the SEFT and affirmation sessions, suggesting that the program is both relevant and effective.
