Summary

The investigators will recruit 60 family caregivers of older adults with cognitive impairment or dementia to participate in a pilot feasibility and acceptability trial of Mindfulness Coach, an mHealth mobile application that delivers mindfulness therapy. Mindfulness Coach is a self-guided mHealth intervention designed to help individuals learn MT, an evidence-based treatment to enhance health, wellness and mental health. The app also offers a library of information about MT (e.g., "how to anchor participants' attention"), 12 audio-guided mindfulness exercises, and a catalog of additional exercises available for free. In addition to collecting data about the feasibility and acceptability of Mindfulness Coach with caregivers of patients with dementia or cognitive impairment, the investigators will also collect data on preliminary efficacy of Mindfulness Coach at relieving symptoms of caregiver burden, anxiety, stress and depression.
