Brief Mindfulness-Based Intervention

In addition to the educational materials that will be provided to all participants, the participants in the intervention group will also receive a 10-minute mindfulness-based intervention called a body scan. The body scan is a guided meditation exercise where participants are lead through focusing their attention on their body while maintaining awareness and acceptance of their sensations, emotions, and thoughts without trying to control or change them. The goal of the intervention is to increase mindfulness (i.e., moment-to-moment, non-judgmental and non-reactive awareness of sensations, emotions and thoughts), to provide self-regulation strategies, and to promote healthy and adaptive responses to stress.
