Editorial & Research Standards
Kula Paradise Academy is committed to providing responsible, research-informed educational content.
This page outlines the principles that guide how resources are developed, reviewed, and maintained across the Academy.
Research-Informed, Not Research-Claiming
Kula Paradise Academy draws upon established research across fields such as:
-
psychophysiology
-
stress and emotional regulation
-
attention and learning
-
contemplative and reflective practices
Content translates well-established research frameworks into accessible, plain-language explanations intended for everyday understanding and responsible application.
KPA does not:
-
publish original scientific research
-
present itself as a research institution
-
make medical, psychological, or therapeutic claims
References to research are used for educational context only.
Educational Scope

Language & Responsibility
KPA maintains careful standards around language and framing.
We intentionally avoid:

urgency-based or pressure-driven messaging

When referencing established research or widely studied frameworks:
-
we prioritize well-recognized institutions and peer-reviewed sources

refine language

reflect evolving understanding

maintain relevance over time
Updates are made with continuity and responsibility in mind.
Content is not revised for trends, urgency, or promotional purposes.

-
enable appropriate collaboration with educators, organizations, and public-sector partners
