Summary

This clinical trial evaluates the impact of a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program adjusted to include Christian principles on well-being in Black adult cancer survivors. Cancer survivors face a unique set of challenges that includes not only physical but also mental and spiritual well-being. Concerns related to both diagnosis and treatment profoundly impact the quality of life of Black cancer survivors. Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) have been shown to be effective in improving psychological resilience, reducing anxiety, and enhancing the quality of life among cancer survivors. However, there is little research focusing on these interventions among Black adult cancer survivors. Research has shown that interventions that include cultural experiences, such as the role of religion, spirituality and faith, are more effective in maintaining psychological well-being in Black men. A MBSR program adjusted to include Christian principles may improve the well-being in Black adult cancer survivors.
