Interventions

DEVICE

Intervention -- "Headspace" mindfulness application

Patients will be provided with a pre-paid 12-week subscription to the mindfulness application, and provided an in-person demonstration on how to use it, and the subscription license code will be recorded for the purposes of tracking use after the conclusion of the study. The intervention group will be asked to use the mindfulness app 10 minutes per day/5 days per week. To standardize Pack usage across all participants, users will be asked to complete the Headspace Essentials", "Pain Management", and "Physical Health" Session Packs.

DEVICE

Control -- "My Water Balance" application

My Water Balance calculates an individual's recommended daily water requirements and assists users in tracking their daily fluid intake. The control group will be asked to log their water intake for the duration of the study, with requested use of 5 days per week to create an equal control. This application is free to download and use. There are options for in-app purchases and application upgrades, though users will be advised against doing so. Information logged in the application may be stored on a third party server; however, no application data will be extracted by the study team. Application use will be reported via weekly surveys, alone.
