Clinical Trials

To establish the feasibility of a tool that monitors and motivates people with COPD to complete training in mindful pursed-lip breathing to enhance pulmonary rehabilitation at home.

The purpose of this study is to develop a mindful breathing module to an already effective and developed home based rehabilitation program for guiding COPD patients in a mindful breathing practice and further palliate breathlessness and anxiety.

The purpose of this study is to study the feasibility of a wearable brain sensing wellness device to provide mindfulness training to fibromyalgia patients.

People with COPD have a greater risk for symptoms of depression, anxiety, and fear of breathlessness. Those emotions are independently associated with lower physical activity, poorer quality of life, and higher hospitalization and exacerbations; all independent predictors of survival and costs. There is a lack of treatment options to be routinely used in primary clinics for patients with COPD. Systematic reviews suggest that interventions that promote an accepting mode of response, such as mindfulness, might be more appropriate and effective for managing psychological distress in COPD patients, especially breathing-related anxiety. Hypothesis: A home-based 8-week Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) for COPD ...

The aims of this study are to assess the acceptability of a mindfulness-based physical activity intervention with postmenopausal women, and to determine whether a mindfulness-based physical activity intervention can elicit clinically meaningful increases in postmenopausal women’s daily physical activity.

The purpose of this study is to look at the use of a novel biofeedback-assisted meditation device when used during the day to provide mindfulness training if it can increase calm state brain activity in post-Covid patients.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of Mayo Clinic’s Resilience Training Program among healthcare employees and members of an employee-based wellness center.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of a resiliency program to provide an effective and sustainable solution to several important problems experienced by medical professionals.

This study examines Stress Management and Resilience Training (SMART) for family caregivers (FCG) of patients receiving chemotherapy for advanced cancer to potentially help with the stressful aspects of providing care. All participants will receive the SMART intervention.

The purpose of this study is to determine the usefulness and effectiveness of Muse, a brain sensing headband intervention, to affect quality of life, stress, fatigue and sleep in newly diagnosed breast cancer patients who are undergoing surgical treatment.

The purpose of this study is to improve dignity and life quality for patients and their families, and to effectively counter burnout and vulnerability to adverse mental experience in the highly stressful environment of end-of-life care.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) on subjective reports of wellness including emotional, physical, functional, and social domains during radiotherapy for the treatment of cancer.

There is evidence that mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) such as meditation, mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) and yoga might improve Quality of Life (QOL) and reduce stress in breast cancer survivors. These interventions are becoming increasingly popular in cancer survivors. However, little is known about the feasibility and effect of MBIs administered during the interval of time of chemotherapy, on QOL and stress. The investigators are planning a MBI intervention study developed specifically for breast cancer survivors receiving chemotherapy (usually 4-5 months) at the investigators institution, for at least 8 sessions combined with at least 8 weeks of home-practice, in 25 women ...
