BEHAVIORAL

Mindfulness meditation

Participants in the intervention group will have their choice of two commercially available mindfulness programs, HeadspaceTM and eMindful for 6 weeks. The Headspace program provides progressive guided mindfulness meditation instruction via a website and mobile app to help users learn the skills of mindfulness for use in everyday life. Sessions last 3-20 minutes. Videos encourage the integration of mindfulness into daily life. eMindful offers an online virtual classroom where participants can participate in synchronous, 1-hour mindfulness classes 1-2 times per week. The program is modeled after the mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) program. eMindful also offers a cancer-specific meditation course that participants may choose to participate in.
