Summary

The study is a prospective, randomized, non-blinded comparative group clinical trial comparing participants who receive access to a mindfulness software app, Headspace, to those who receive standard care (i.e., a list of resources on mindfulness and health). It is hypothesized that participants randomized to the Headspace mindfulness application will exhibit greater improvement in HbA1C and quality of life measures compared to those randomized to standard care.

Headspace Mindfulness App

Participants will be given instructions on how to download Headspace on an electronic device and will be provided a free 3-month access code. The app contains a series of ten step-wise 10-minute video sessions that guide the user through mindfulness training. Upon completion of these sessions, additional content will be accessible, including sessions on health (depression, self-esteem, anxiety, sleep, and pregnancy), relationships (kindness, generosity, relationships, change, appreciation, and acceptance) and performance (creativity, focus, happiness, and balance). The frequency and duration of usage will be in accordance to the instructions of the app.
